From the local list serv...here we go again!
ALERT!

7:45pm, 3 folks were canvasing the block saying ' Hi, we're from the power company."

This ESCOS was less "deceptive" due to the fact that they had hats and jackets with the logo on it, but they did not identify them as an ESCOS. Add U.S. Energy Savings Corp to the list.

I told them to get off the block or we'll call the cops...initially they were "nicer" than IDT Energy and said "good night." When I pressed them further, they got nasty.

Response was "go ahead, we have dealt with that before." (and a few profanities).

After I yelled at them at every house they hit after ours, and more of "what we're doing is regulated by the New York State" (only partially true) and "we deal with the cops all the time," they left the last third of the block. On to the rest of the neighborhood, I guess.

Argh! Another ESCOS doing deceptive tactics!

Here's the ESCOS: http://www.energysavings.com/index.taf?t=11&n=279

OK, another to add to the list. Let's get this info out there. I told them I was alerting the community. Pass this along.

CM DeBlasio has introduced legislature to back a bill at the state, but ALL local electeds need to act!

Frustrated and angry,
Anybody been hit up tonight?
