9. Myths of Commodity Contracting
1
My electricity won’t be as reliable if I switch providers.
-­‐
Reliability is exactly the same with all suppliers and managed by the applicable state.
2
I don’t want to leave the company I’ve been with for years.
We may not change your service, we focus on price and risk management. However, if we
-­‐
do change your supplier, we will make the reasons for doing so very apparent.
3
I won’t know who to call if my power goes out.
-­‐
You are only changing who sells your power, not who delivers it. You call the same number.
4
Switching is hard and will take a lot of time.
The switching process is easy and quick. Most customers can be contracted with
-­‐
guaranteed savings in a week or less. We handle the work so you don’t have to.
