deciptive, false information, misleading Zembl rep calls me and introduces there electricity rates which were good but could not believe. I asked the rep are there any other charges eg metering charges he assured there will be no metering charges… Read more

everthing will be in email.

a Few days later

get an email from Zembl asking to log in and set up a password for easy access to pay bill, view outstandings etc. Which I did, first thing I checked was the rates they are providing

BOOM

The rates are higher then what was discussed, called back and spoke to the rep he said he will look into it. Later get a response

"Looks like a rate structure change. I think this will actually be better for you. As you will benefit from the off-peak and shoulder through the day time."

Which was not the case.

I would not recommend this company at all. They lure you in with low rates but the rates change when you get the welcome pack.

 Follow-up  · Cancelling was easy with form they had provided along with there welcome email. Rates were at list 10% more to what it was introduced. reason for change as quoted "Looks like a rate structure change. I think this will actually be better for you. As you will benefit from the off-peak and shoulder through the day time."

Charles Thornton found me the cheapest deal for my Electricity and Gas in North Frankston Victoria today! – I have used Make it cheaper for a few years now and have found there service to be quick reliable and the best way to go for getting signed up to the cheapest offers by suppliers for Gas and Electricity. Make it Cheaper does all the homework without having to navigate all the different suppliers websites which can be time wasting and difficult,… Read more ·  1

as a lot of the sites are not exactly user friendly, as I found out yesterday and today after being advised by one of the suppliers that my current contract was about to expire. I phoned up Make It Cheaper today and got through to Charlie Thornton who quickly found me the best rates for Gas and Electricity in my area. We completed the sign ups over the phone and it didnt take any longer than about 20-25 minutes.He was extremely quick and efficient in finding me the best deals. Job done! I highly recommend Make it Cheaper as the best way to go when the time comes around to renew your energy contracts.

Illegal transfer of business electricity account – MIC signed us to Blue NRG without our permission and any documentation. One of MIC rep called my business partner to offer to switch electricity and gas. She was asked to call me. MIC rep called me and said they can automatically transfer electricity but gas account has a different process. I asked for the details of the gas tariffs etc but at no… Read more

point consented to transfer the electricity account.

A few days later, my previous electricity provider sent us the final bill. Not expecting a final bill I rang my business partner whether he switched provider without my knowledge. He didn't, so I had to call Alinta to check who disconnected it. I was told our new provider was Blue NRG. That was the first time I heard about Blue NRG.

Blue NRG were very professional and excellent customer service when I rang to enquire based on my NMI number. They were surprised as well how the account came to them.

Obviously, some over enthusiatic rep at MIC who is perhaps paid based on sign up decided to take short cut and switched us to Blue NRG. In fact, she about to leave MIC when I first spoke to her, because she mentioned it when I asked for her contact details.

MIC, you need to have better controls and not cause nuisance to potential customers.

By the way, I tried to ring MIC and its been an hour that MIC has not called me back. In the mean time, I spoke twice with Alinta and once with Blue NRG and have also written this review.

Unwanted nuisance – Used their services back when they were Make It Cheaper. It was welcomed at the time since our energy situation had changed, and savings were promised on the back of a simple change-over. Well, the 'simple' changeover had to be done 3 separate times over the span of 2 months before finally taking effect. The time and frustration outweighed any… Read more

benefits, and I wish I'd dealt directly with the energy provider from the start. Now our office is getting endless calls from Zembl, disrupting our business, wanting to go through the process again. Promises energy savings without doing any sort of price comparison and demanding the time to do so. The irony is, I do want to do a price/market comparison, but it needs to be at a time that suits. The sales person doesn't care about this and is persistently harassing us, being rude to our staff, and using pressuring and bullying tactics to try to force our time for their own agenda. Obviously don't care about the businesses they harass as long as they get their piece of the pie whenever they want it.

Had issues with our previous energy company. Spoke to Abdul Khadim at Zembl and he gave us options in our area. When we’d picked the best one for us they covered all the paperwork. Highly recommended Show reply

Change of Plan – Hopefully the club will be happy with the change of plan. Alix Crosby was very helpful on the ph. with the information. The management of the club feels that the solar rate should stay the same. What is the point of everyone having solar when we are not getting a good return. I am happy to change to an Australian co. Show reply
