Scam. Door-to-door salesman promised me lower electricity rates. Technically, that's true, their rate is about $0.01 less per KwH that I was paying. But what they don't tell you is that they assess a daily "customer charge" of $1.49 EVERY DAY. Adding that charge doubled my electric bill this month (the first month that I was signed up with them). Avoid at all costs!

SFE Energy is a scam. They tell you there's no charge for their service and then charge $40/mo to be a customer. And if you cancel, they charge you $7.50/mo till your contract is up. They even went as far as to say the phone was breaking up when trying to dispute. Not to mention, the guy came up to a no soliciting house (sign on house), took phone and filled in the questionnaire himself and told us to say we did it. STEER CLEAR, They're FRAUDS!!

I should have listened to my scam alert when it flashed scam. I was lucky that my deceased father was on the Gas and electricity bill. I was able to cancel both accounts because my father was deceased. I got a new account in my name and slammed the door on those crooks.

My energy bill increased dramatically after signing on with this company!! They have good customer service and they're professional...but I just was throwing money away with them. Never Again!!!

Horribly deceptive company. A salesman knocked on my door and used language like they were there with management, and wanted me to fill out paperwork. She said it wasn’t a sales thing, it was to lower existing rates. She said they worked over my existing company. Then suddenly my provider switched. I’m an idiot for signing stuff, but they suck for their practices.

During a recent visit to my home from SFE Energy, verbally identified as "Summitt Energy," they employed a tactic known as “slamming.” They misrepresented themselves as agents who needed access to my utility bill to verify what they claimed might be an incorrect gas rate. They suggested that, as the gas provider for PGE, they were the only entity who could adjust this rate. Their attempts to gain access to my information were persistent, even offering to assist me with the complicated PGE website. It's crucial to **NOT SHARE** your utility bill information, particularly your account number.

I AM A 100% COMBAT DISABLED 77 YEAR OLD VETERAN AND THIS COMPANY REFUSED TO GIVE ME SERVICE FOR A HOUSE THAT I AM CLOSING ON THIS FRIDAY, TODAY BEING WEDNESDAY, AND MOVING IN SATURDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I EXPLAINED THAT I AM USING DURABLE MEDICAL EQUIPMENT NEEDING ELECTRICITY (WHEELCHAIR, CONCENTRATOR, CPAP, NEBULISER, ETC.). LEHALLY THEY CANNOT REFUSE TO PROVIDE SERVICE!!!! I HAVE NO OUTSTANDING UTILITY OBLIGATIONS WITH ANYONE!!!!! WE WILL BE FILING CIVIL AND CRIMINAL COMPLAINTS (ADA VIOLATIONS, WRECKLESS ENDANGERMENT, ETC.)!!!!

SFE Energy dramatically increased my energy rate to nearly **three times the average market price without proper notification**. After I **canceled my contract**, they **continued charging my account anyway**. This feels like extremely deceptive billing. Consumers should not be hit with massive price increases without clear notice, and charges should stop immediately once a contract is canceled. Very disappointing experience. I strongly recommend others avoid SFE Energy and monitor their bills carefully
