Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is energy deregulation?
With deregulation, the retail supply of electricity and gas—that is, the actual “energy” supplied to your home or business is now opened to competition among various retailers who compete to provide better service and prices. What that means is that you can now choose your energy supplier. Deregulated retail supply includes customer service, rate plans and other customer incentive programs. When companies compete for your business, you as the consumer see the benefit through competitively priced offerings while still enjoying the same reliability that you have always enjoyed, even after you switch to a new retail supplier.
Q: Do you offer Budget Billing?
In Pennsylvania where the Utility does the billing, customers will automatically remain on Budget Billing when they switch to Stream Energy. Nothing will change for the customer.
While the Utility also does the billing in Maryland, New Jersey, and New York. Budget Billing does not carry over for the energy charges when a customer switches providers. Delivery charges however will remain on Budget Billing. Like in Texas and Georgia, the customer must true-up their account when they switch to Stream Energy. Stream Energy does not offer Budget Billing at this time in Maryland, New Jersey, or New York but would like to in the near future.
Whatever market a customer is in, they should always contact their current provider to determine how their budget plan will be impacted by switching to a new provider.
