| 1171724 | 2011-01-22 08:09:00 | Hi, had a call today from Just Energy offering to slash my power bills by about 5%. Anyone have any experience of them and are they good, bad or otherwise? Cheers |

| 1171726 | 2011-01-22 12:01:00 | Only 5% goodness I would be asking for more discount. A lot of these companies offer you a lower price, and then a few months down the line increase their prices. | wmoore (6009) | ||

| 1171728 | 2011-01-22 18:43:00 | Lets put it this way if they are offering 5% less than the competition and do not lock you into any contract period then you are free to do as you like and get cheaper bills. How often do you ring an electricity company with a problem??? Only problem is going to be how the meter has not been read and even thats not a problem. |

| 1171730 | 2011-01-22 20:22:00 | I use Energy Online which are one of the cheaper power companys. You get 20% discount if the bill is paid on time. Check out Consumers Power Switch. www.consumer.org.nz :) |

| 1171731 | 2011-01-23 00:16:00 | The early payment discount is just the flip side of a late payment penalty. Weasle words! It never ceases to amaze me how much vunerable (uneducated) people are exploited. Paying on time and paying cash up front for goods and services actualy saves you a lot of money. |

It never ceases to amaze me how much vunerable (uneducated) people are exploited. Paying on time and paying cash up front for goods and services actualy saves you a lot of money. The discounted amount for payment on time is in fact the retail price the supplier wants. If you don't pay on time, you pay extra. Put another way, they fine you for being late. |

Cheers Slash your power bill, and 5% don't really compute. 5% is hardly a big discount. You get more than that by paying early with some providers. Ask them to send you all the details. I never deal with cold callers and telemarketing companies.. |
