I have a small company and we signed up in 2014 on a one year contract. Unknown to us the contract expired and our tariff shot up about 40%. They did not inform us we were out of contract. An ESB salesman called last month and gave us a cracking rate. He called because he could 'see' we were out of contract. The Energia bills fail to give the average or highest MIC used, as a consequence we were buying 125kVA MIC when our highest was 41 kVA. We paid Energia in excess of €10,000 in punitive tariff and ESB and Social in excess of €9000 for over stating our MIC. All could have been avoided with transparent billing. We are going to the regulator, but because it appears no wrong was committed, nothing will be done. Unjust enrichment?
As close to a scam as you can legally go?
Our office clerk would have to be very sharp to notice the tariff change amongst all the numbers.
Avoid Energia!

My advice to people making the switch is that your "year" moves along very quickly and don't expect to be notified of changes to your tariff. It's up to you to keep yourself informed and up to date.
Hello,
Is anyone receiving ongoing nuisance calls from the following phone number: +353 0818555222 (the call comes through, is answered, no one says anything for a few seconds and then they hang up) ?
I have found a website with posts on it from people claiming that the calls might be as a result of registering with Energia and a crowd that do the free boiler insurance for them, so I am trying to confirm so I can then put a stop to it.
Thank you.
