1 starScammers. The salesperson lied and stated they were with bge and needed to adjust my electric. I later found out after receiving an email that they are with idt energy and now Im signed up. I proceeded to ****** via phone. I then find out that after *** canceled my bge due to relocating that I was still enrolled; they do not cancel your account unless you basically tell at them to. They scam and sign up under false pretenses.Review fromDane N

1 starSome scammers came to my home switching my commed service with IDT Energy . Saying they were changing the meters account number and that they needed to see my account number with commed. Then he took my cell phone and started forging my signature saying he just needed to confirm something. Next thing i know i get an email from this garbage company saying i was enrolled with them. These guys are a complete scam and should be prosecuted. Im pretty positive i can sue especially when they forge my signature.IDT Energy, Inc.

In an effort to resolve this circumstance, ***'s Compliance team spoke with account holder ***** ******** to explain that the enrollment was rescinded and what steps were taken to rectify their concerns, to which they indicated they were satisfied with the outcome of the BBB Review. Lastly, Mr. ********** residential address and phone number were added to IDT Energy's internal marketing suppression list to prevent future solicitation from the company.Review fromDonna H

1 starI was called by this company awhile back and they sold the heck out of this. I was told I would save money, the man has my account number with comed, EVERYTHING and promised that my bill would be lower. I live in a small 2bedroom townhome only 1000 sq ft and my light bill was always $300+. The number quoted at the time of the call they charge per usage was a bold lie. I was enlightened by ComED today that they charge twice as much and I was scammed. I now have a $2500 light bill which they agreed that the amount didnt match my usage but Im stuck with this bill, Im a single parent of 2 children and dont know what else to do. Im so hurt by this and no one has any answers.IDT Energy, Inc.

1 starA vile, b****** company that scams the disabled, elderly, and refuses to take accountability for their sins. They deserve to rot in whatever punishment they've gotten themselves and have been sued by their constituents before. I hope they die a painful, ******** style death.IDT Energy, Inc.

1 star0* "PREDATORY COMPANY"I've never asked for or signed up for these services.(both electric and gas supply) I've been on hold for over an hour now trying to contact the company. I just read through my entire electric bill, IDT is charging me $0.14, when comed only charges $0.06kh. ****** and REQUEST all documents and records. I'm contacting a lawyer next. The lady(Tiara) on the line told me that I was signed up on September 19th with a door to door salesman, and it only required someone over the age of 18yrs to sign up. I can prove it wasn't with me, and my name is the only one on the bill. Something fragulant is happening.IDT Energy, Inc.

1 starI absolute detest everything about this company. They told me at my door that they were representatives for ***. They scammed me to give them my account number for electric and gas and told me they needed it to "fix a mistake" in my pricing. They had me sign it telling me that they would fix the mistake in my pricing as *** representatives. They never told me I would be switching to ***. they never even mentioned the name.I had 2 small children with me and I just wanted them to leave. Im so mad that while distracted from toddler and a baby, they scammed me. These are some of the most disgusting people I have ever met. I saw my contract had a 3 day cancellation for door to door ********. So I did just that. But they only cancelled the electric and not the gas. My last gas bill was a hundred more dollars than normal.Disgusting. *******. Wrong. Gross.IDT Energy, Inc.

1 starI believe this company is trying to scam people. Someone named ******* just came to my door and acted as though he was from Ameren saying I was due a refund from being overcharged. When I asked why I didn't receive any notification from ****** like an email or alert on the website, he said it was on the bill. When I pulled the bill up to check, he couldn't tell me where it would be. I asked if he was actually from ****** after he sent me a link to my "refund" and the website didn't say Ameren and he said he's actually from IDT Energy and the link was to sign a year long contract and then I would get a rebate gift card. They are absolutely misrepresenting themselves.IDT Energy, Inc.
