Complaint: [redacted] I am rejecting this response because: [redacted] calls everytime I am in the car or working and I can not take calls at work I asked her to call during the morning hours I will not accept what takes them cents to send out a piece of paper that costa me $and then another $ Thats a rip off Not to mention when I call them they will not extend services like other companies do I am a senior and get paid once a month on the second Wednesday of the month and Green Mountain should be more understanding of peoples situations.If I could go with another company I would.Regards, [redacted]

Complaint: [redacted] I am rejecting this response because:Complaint: [redacted] I am rejecting this response because: There was NO gift card sent to me by email in Oct 2014. This is a blatant lie by Green Mountain Energy. I have now finally received an electronic gift card via email for $100.00 on 1/9/2015 after the complaint was filed to BBB by me.The manager who called me in response to this complaint expressed a shallow, robotic apology and tried to tell me that the gift card was sent to me in Oct 2014 electronically, and that it may have been directed to my SPAM - which is just another lie & cover-up. Besides that, the manager tried to tell me that according to the gift card terms, I was required to to have my account in ACTIVE STATUS AT THE TIME THE GIFT CARD IS PROCESSED, so according to him I could have discontinued their services at any time after the 6 month period. And I say to that - Had I discontinued their services while still waiting to receive gift card, then GME would tell me that my account is NOT in active status and would use that excuse to reject the issuance of gift card - So GME is still trying to shamelessly use TECHNICALITY in their favor as per their convenience.I confirm that I have now received the egift card on 1/9/15 to which I was entitled to, by virtue of the contract. However, I want to RETURN the $100.00 gift card back to GME as I REJECT this response from GME and REFUSE TO LET GME OFF THE HOOK WITH YET ANOTHER LIE FROM THEIR SIDE. (since I registered & checked out the gift card towards a $100.00 Macy's gift Card, I would have to return it by snail mail. Or I can return the $100.00 in any other form, such as a cashiers check or personal check). I reject the response from GME until they produce the email, or evidence thereof, that they claimed to have sent me in Oct 2014. If GME can't produce the proof of this email, then I expect that a Senior Manager or Administrator take ownership of their lies & cover-up's, and send me a written apology.Regards,*** [redacted] Regards, *** ***
