Customer Reviews

In general, customer service experiences with Gateway Energy Services get very high marks. Additionally, consumers report great savings with fixed-rate plans.

On the other hand, customers report feeling uncomfortable with door to door sales tactics. Variable rates can spike from one month to the next, and consumers state that savings can be lost very quickly. On top of that, customers on fixed rate plans can be automatically switched over to variable rates at the end of their contract term. Some consumers feel that they are not adequately notified of these changes, which usually result in rate spikes.

Our take: Gateway Energy Services may be a good deal if you are able to find a fixed rate plan that offers competitive rates. Cancellation fees can be high, so be sure you will not want to exit early from your contract. Additionally, you may need to track when your contract ends - so you don't get shifted to a highly variable plan.
