San Diego Gas And Electric Reviews

No reason to raise rates like crazy. Here are a couple of excellent ideas I told the company with which reps agree, but they have not done it which makes me skeptical of them.

First and foremost, SDGE needs to have an awareness campaign informing customers that even if a device is turned off, it still uses energy if plugged in.

Customers should unplug all devices even if turned off. I do this and it cuts my bill in half (proven at company). Why won't SDGE tell everyone broadly about this using traditional and social media, NOT an insert in the bill. This savings can have major implications for the company's customers, industry and globe.

Regulators should be asking this question of them, instead of allowing frivolous price increases.

Also, SDGE should have the capability of notifying customers of which devices are using how much energy at a given point in time, so customers can make adjustments accordingly to reduce their bill. Seems like something that should already be done, but isn't. Why not?

Does SDGE make money based on more kilowatt usage? Is this why the company might be reluctant to do anything per the above to benefit the consumers, for whom they are licensed to serve?

Politicians, regulators, media, consumer advocates and others, there you go.

Now see what you can do and find some answers, please. Thank you.

I was astonished at the high prices SDGE was charging, but then was told if I unplug my devices I could save big. I did not know that devices that are plugged in but not turned on still use energy!

Now I unplug all my devices when not in use, especially overnight, and my bill is cut in half. I plug them back in during the morning or next time I need them. The company probably does not want you to know this, but I am passing this advice along to you so you can save the money and not give it to this company. You will see what a difference it makes!

Why doesn't SDGE tell this to its customers in a big ad campaign? Regulators at CPUC, are you listening?

I have been trying to make a payment online and by phone. I tried yesterday and I tried this morning.

The calls keep being dropped. In other words, I am being hung up on before I even get to talk to anybody. Also, I am trying to pay with a credit card online and it is supposed to transfer me to another website to do this but it is an able to do so. I will not be penalized for something that I have sincerely tried to remedy.

I believe the due date for my bill is today. Ironically, I was prompted to do this by a scam or posing as SDGE. The scammer hung up after the recording, not allowing me to answer.

I, of course looked up the number and realized it was not the companies number, which prompted me to check and see if my new place of rent had a bill due. Coincidentally, my bill is due today, but I found out yesterday.
