Here is an update so you can decide if you should answer when they call a second time.
"Hello, we are calling about a very important matter regarding your electric bill.
As a result of the new state laws, you may be entitled to a reduction of up to
25% on your next electric bill. This is a no cost free service to you."
Up to 25% is not at least 25% so know what you are getting into.

I never answer 888 or 800 numbers but I picked up this one because it looked like a real phone number. It was Plymouth Rock Energy. I could hardly hear/understand the telemarketer because (1) there was all this background noise and feedback in the background, and (2) he was speaking kind of fast and garbled.
This guy asked for "the person in charge of the PSEG bill" and launched into a script about how I'm entitled to have my energy bill lowered. He then asked if I was in good standing on my bill (I answered YES) and whether I was on any kind of government assistance (I answered NO). He then asked me for a number (again, I could hardly hear/understand him so I'm not sure which number he was asking for) on my PSEG bill. I asked him to send me something in writing because I don't do business or give out any information over the phone. He then adopted a combative tone and said they already sent me something in the mail. So I told him I'd review the matter and get back to them. He grew even MORE combative and said something like, "What's the point of going through the mail when we already have all your information here and we can do it over the phone?"
Uh huh. You have all my information and that's why you don't even have my name. Idiots. Plymouth Rock Energy seems legitimate, and I don't think this was a scam, per se. However, I don't appreciate unsolicited calls, especially being on the Do Not Call list, and I certainly don't appreciate companies trying to trick or pressure me into switching providers Even if Plymouth Rock does have better rates than PSEG, I won't be switching to Plymouth Rock because they've pissed me off. Good job, Plymouth Rock.
I am stuck in this scam with them-- got the same phone call June 2012 by some guy Kellen. Told me I can get it for 8 cents and I asked what happens if they go higher then Peco and he told me that I would pay Pecos rate. The last 3 months they keep upping the rate right now I am at 33 cents and Peco is at 8 cents. They have horrible customer service!!! They over charged me over $500-- don't use Plymouth Rock Energy!!!
