I already pay a boat load in taxes. There’s only so much people can take before we say it’s time to go.

COVID didn’t change anything about our driving. We’re still assholes who are always in a rush, no matter where we’re going. It’s no better or worse.

Correct. Eversource and UI are the utility providers for CT, so they’ll still be the ones delivery the electricity depending on where you live.

Straight from Constellation’s website:
† 90-Day Guarantee Period. You may terminate this Contract without incurring an early termination fee during the 90 days following your enrollment date (the Guarantee Period) by notifying us in writing or by calling our customer care center at 1-855-465-1244. Upon your termination during the Guarantee Period we will return you to being supplied by the Utility at your next available meter read date, or if you are a customer in the Atlanta Gas Light area your service will continue with Constellation until you complete a switch to your selected marketer, and you will remain responsible for payment for any energy related costs and charges incurred under this Contract through such meter read or termination date. Not applicable in Texas. Not applicable in Connecticut or Illinois where residential customers are never charged an early termination fee.

I received an email a half hour after I submitted my information letting me know that my request to switch to Constellation has been sent to Eversource.

Why do you say that? They serve a good 15 states including CT.

Is it entirely possible your skepticism is misguided? Many of us here have chosen to switch to Constellation already. There is nothing in the contract that looks remotely close to a scam.

I would imagine your rate skyrockets upon renewal (assuming you forget about the expiration date of the original contract). Suppliers that aren’t Eversource are typically more expensive, so this is one of the rare times where that’s not the case.

I doubt it will do anything to Eversource’s pseudo-monopoly on the market. This is simply a way for customers to get ahead of the massive supply rate increase.

Almost certain it still all goes through Eversource

As I understood it, the delivery fee is whatever Eversource charges because they’re still the ones delivering the electricity. It’s only the supply side of the bill that’s changing.

Good luck finding enough staff to handle multiple tiers of classes for each subject. Also, I call BS on these seniors having “mostly” middle-school level abilities.

What are you trying to say? Between your wording and misuse of commas, I’m lost.
