Billing Reviews

“  Received a $6.03 invoice for my first three days of my initial month of service beginning 04/01/18, indicating zero therms used??? This bill was balance forwarded to a $41.54 for the remainder of the April cycle? Really, this is how we keep new customers?
Contacted C/S and was unable to resolve billing issue. Was transferred to billing which I let ring for at least five minutes prior to hanging up. Situation status - unresolved. ”

“  Hours and hours spent on the phone to get a credit on an early termination fee of $150, that they told me should have never been charged. The lady asked for the best contact number, in case we were disconnected. I gave her 2 phone numbers. After an hour and 45 minutes, we were disconnected. She didn't call back. She had already taken care of the $150 fee but I asked for the taxes on the fee to be credited back, as well, before we were disconnected. So, I call back the next day and the new customer rep told me not only was I not getting the sales tax back, a manager had also reversed the early termination credit and put it back on my bill. VERY Long story, short, it took another hour and a half of my life to request all phone conversations be reviewed to get my $150 back. But for some reason they refuse to credit back the extra taxes. The entire situation is still very hard to fathom. Quick story from 2 years ago, when I called to have my service stopped because I only use gas for heat. I was told it would be 3 weeks before they could turn it off. I asked to get it done before I was pushed over into another month of AGL pass thru charges, taxes, fees etc. I own a store and have 2 meters so, before I even use a single therm of gas my bills are about $140 each. Needless to say, they couldn't get my gas turned off before the next billing cycle. So I was forced to pay $280 for 2 days in the new cycle. They issued a $30 credit for the inconvenience. I will never use or recommend GNG again in this lifetime. I actually have more nightmare stories, from over the years, both residential and commercial, but I think we get a pretty good understanding of their business practice ”

“  Everytime I call in, they make me answer a 100 questions about my account so I can verify my identity. Their employees are not competent. They will not fix any issues with billing for example removing a late charge when I paid it as soon as I noticed the issue. ”

“  This is absolutely outrageous. My 1200 square foot house was billed 224 for 30 days the last billing cycle. the latest bill was for 28 days and Over $300 ...I'm being charged $2.09 per therm. Why is a therm of gas so high... ”

“  I renewed my contract with GNG in August, but changed from the flat rate plan to the per therm plan. For the last 30 days I used a total of 10.4 therms, but still got billed for the flat rate because, according to them, it takes 1-2 billing cycles for tge account to change. And I don't get any credit for the difference! My bill should have been about $10 plus all the made up fees, but now I'm told if I break my new contract I will be charged early termination fees. They'd better take a picture of the last payment I made because that's the last money they're gonna see from me! ”

“  I was placed with Gas South 20 years ago when the state of GA decided to destroy the cost efficient billing and force everyone to pay exorbitant prices with zero added benefit. We managed to get away from them then. I had expected they would have improved, after all, they are simply a billing company, but no. If it can be messed up, Gas South can do it. I had them for January and returned to my old provider. The only thing I have received from Gas South was a notice that there was an error in approving me. No bills, no email my credit score is 850 with Experian, 830 with TransUnion and 832 with Equifax. I am happy to be away from Gas South for a second time. Even though I only had them for 9 days before I decided to leave, there was zero communication from them, the rep. gave me incorrect information and when I called in to ask a question, the 2nd rep. was not pleasant and did not attempt to be friendly. It was during the course of this conversation I decided to end my association with Gas South for the 2nd and final time. ”

“  Held for an hour and a half to speak with supervisor(they must only have one). They claim the mail causes their billing issues not true. I mailed a payment on 3/3 as af 3/15 it still has not posted. This is my second time for this. Forget calling to speak with someone unless you have a couple of hours to burn. They dont really want to hear your concerns anyway. Disgusted in Acworth Ga. ”

“  I have been a customer for 10 months and have never missed a payment. I am enrolled in auto-pay so I generally dismiss the billing statements. Without notice, the company cancelled my auto-pay due to a merger they had done. I received no notice of re-enrolling in auto-pay. While I was on vacation, I received an e-mail that my gas was going to be shut off and did not see it until 2 days later, when I returned and there was a notice on my door that my gas had been shut off. Obviously I was very frustrated with this, so I called the company. They made claims that I was notified via phone, however I have never received a call or a voicemail from them. Prior to that day, there was only 1 e-mail and no snail mail sent my way. My service is shut off for 2 days and I was charged an additional $60 to turn the service back on. I told them I am going to use another company and they threatened me with a cancellation fee or $150. When my contract is up I will be switching to another provider guaranteed. ”

“  I signed up for Constellation to be my carrier. Several times they attempted to contact me. I called them back. They asked me for the meter number which I read them every number on the meter I could find to no avail. I suppose Ga. Power never submitted it. I have yet to receive a bill. I'm only using gas for stove top at this point which, I'm sure, is minimal amount. Later I plan an on demand water heater and whole house power generator. It would be nice if Constellation would come by, get the meter info and set up my account. I'm not at home frequently but they wouldn't need me there to get the info they need. Meanwhile, I'm receiving free usage which I wish they'd get corrected. Because of the hassle, I believe they should set my account up without a connection fee. Just bill me for the gas I've used since inception. I want fixed rate billing, not variable as I do not care for surprises. ”

“  Most utilities are easy to pay online. The Constellation system is clunky and unreliable. Our service was almost disconnected due to their failure to set up credit card billing properly. Long holds and unreliable customer service. GasSouth has been much, much better. ”
