Good afternoon AEP Ohio values our customers, and strives to provide excellent customer serviceThis customer complaint was forwarded to AEP Ohio’s Customer Operations Center ManagerThe agent who displayed the rudeness to the customer was coached on the rudeness and was told to work on her soft skills The AEP Ohio representative attempted to contact the customer to discuss this complaint, and left a message requesting a return call Please consider this matter complete Thank you, [redacted] | AEP Ohio Regulatory Affairs Tech Center Drive | Gahanna, OH 43230- E-mail: [email protected] | Office: 1-877-906- [redacted] | Fax: 1-855-883-***

This is the email I received from AEP at 4pm todayWhen I called to ask about it the automated system said that they had received my payment and credited my account dollarsThis email is conflicting compared to the automated systemI spoke with a representative who said that my account was paidI am reluctant to say this issue is resolved after receiving this emailNo one from AEP has called to say this issue is resolved either.Thank you, [redacted]

Nothing was done on AEP part to resolve this complaintThe data provided in their response is incorrect: I never said I had no damageMoreover I described what damage we sustained several timesHowever according to AEP rules if the outage is “weather related” they are not responsible for anything no matter what damage is done to the consumersSo at this point please consider this complaint closed as there is no willingness from the AEP to resolve it

On two different meetings and two emails stating I would not owe any additional to my $new home credit, I should not be responsible for the $over my creditperiod! AEP has strung me out for over a year about providing my service to my new homeabsolutely ridiculous! Thank you [redacted]

7/8/ AEP did not follow all of our procedures when customer set up account Customer was given an account number that ended up being canceled and closed but customer was still able to log into that account and it showed a zero balance An AEP risk management agent advised customer on 7/7/that we will honor her claimThe agent will work with Ms [redacted] on her food loss and mailed her a letter and worksheet because we need an itemized list with a price associated with each item to pay a food loss claim Please consider this issue resolved Thanks, Sherry AEP Ohio
