PSA. If you enrolled with Budget Power prior to Feb 1, they just sold your account to Direct Energy, a division of NRG. (FYI, Reliant , Green Mountain, Discount Power, Cirro Energy, and others are also owned by NRG.) Direct Energy will be honoring the contract you enrolled in, so nothing about that will change: most importantly, your rate and contract term remain unchanged.
HOWEVER, IF you chose to enroll in autopay, you will need to re-enroll once you receive your first bill from Direct Energy. You will receive your first bill in April.
When you receive communications from Direct Energy it is not spam! Please be mindful of this so you don’t miss a bill and they don’t disconnect you!
For those of you that enrolled with Budget Power post Feb 1, your service provider will remain unchanged.
These partial buyouts are becoming increasingly common.
