electricity and natural gas this winter have sky-rocketed as a result of a severe winter energy shortage caused, in large part, by the extraordinary cold weather. We do offer fixed rates that can help insulate customers from these types of market fluctuations, and our variable rate customers can always call us to make this switch.
In the interest of customer satisfaction, we are sending the customer a check in the amount of $300.60.
We sent an email to the customer outlining these points. We sincerely hope that the customer is satisfied with this outcome, and we encourage them to contact our Account Specialist, [redacted] with any additional questions or concerns.

The
following correspondence is made in response to the complaint filed with the
Revdex.com against North American Power and Gas (“NAPG”) by...

Customer, [redacted]. 
In the complaint, Ms. [redacted] expresses dissatisfaction with the variable rate
charged following the expiration of her fixed contract.
 
To
start, it is NAPG’s standard practice to notify its customers prior to the
expiration of their fixed contract and provide them with options to
renew.  However, if the customer takes no action and/or opts out of
renewal; the Terms of Service indicates that their account will automatically
default to a variable rate plan.  This was the case with Ms. [redacted].
 
At
this time Ms. [redacted]’s supply service has been cancelled and returned to the
utility’s standard offer on 12/12/2014.
 
However,
as a courtesy, NAPG will adjust Ms. [redacted]’s charges for her December 2014 bill
cycle and credit her the difference in cost. 
She should expect a call from an NAPG customer service agent no later
than Friday, 1/9/2015 to discuss any other concerns she may have.
 
NAPG
remains committed to customer service and satisfaction and hope this response
has meaningfully address this complaint. 
 
Sincerely,

In response to [redacted] complaint, our records indicate that the customer has always been enrolled in a variable rate plan, and as such, would not have been issued notice of a rate change. 
It's worthy to point out that variable rates are...

subject to price fluctuations based on energy market conditions and other price related factors.  That being said, the rates can go higher or lower than the local utility's standard offer in any given month - hence the reason monthly rate change notices are not issued for this plan.  However, one advantage to the variable rate plan is that it provides the customer with the flexibility to make changes to this plan when their energy needs change, without incurring any early termination fees.We regret the customer was dissatisfied with our service and have made several attempts to contact her, but to no avail.  We will continue our pursuits, however we encourage the customer to contact NAPG's escalations hotline at [redacted] ext. [redacted] to discuss this matter.  We look forward to an amicable resolution.
Sincerely,

As the other reviews make clear, be prepared to be robbed by these people. DO NOT do business with them. I got hooked in with a low rate, which automatically tripled when the term expired, despite my calls to them. As I write this, I am waiting on hold to complain, but nobody is picking up. There is a reason there are lawsuits and other actions being taken against them in other states. DO NOT do business with them!!

Complaint: [redacted]
I am rejecting this response because:When I visited the website to renew my fixed rate, I entered my account number therefor they knew I was already a customer of theirs, also the website form did not state for new customers only. As for not contacting them, I was contacting them, when I filled out the online form. There is no where that states I must call them.The email I received did not state that my enrollment was declined, it stated that with the next meter reading a contract would start with 6.99 costIf it was rejected, then I should of got an email stating this was for new customers only and that I did not qualify.
