I agree, this is just simply a way for you to get lower rates on your gas or electric bills. Since new laws were passed alot of consumers are not aware of this right...i do not think its a scam at all, and you are able to cancel your switch at anytime you are not satisfied
Received two calls within the hour from this company 'Energy DiscountCenter', different callers who said they could save on my gas and electric rates. Neither would send me info. on the company.
The first caller asked for my coned account number and she was quiet insistant..
I actually happen to know a bit about these companies.
It's really not a scam. It is a sort of shady way to get to sign up with another supplier... and some of them out there are scams, and others aren't. And when the companies identify themselves as an actual Utility Company, they out to switch you without your knowledge. If they identify themselves clearly as not your utility, then it's not a scam. They aren't selling anything.
