Top Tier Support!

The support I received was great! They were quick to respond, offered a solution, and executed it without any unnecessary back and forth. Most importantly, their tone was cheerful, and they made me feel like a real person, not just a number. Special shoutout to Olive and Emma! They’re fantastic! I’ve been in customer support for 20 years, and based on my experience, I would hire both of them to join my team in an instant! Great job!

Stacy, a compliment like that from someone with 20 years in customer support means the world! 🌳 We're so glad the help was quick, cheerful, and made you feel like a person rather than a number — we'll be sure to pass your kind words along to Emma and the rest of the team.

One of the best choices I've made

I was a little skeptical of using Arbor as a tool in helping with our rising utility costs. However, I am very, very satisfied with Arbor's assistance. The team at Arbor has consistently been so helpful in lowering my utility costs and taken over the time consuming chore of searching for the best pricing. The team's communication is spot on with every move they make on my behalf. I would definitely recommend to others the Arbor experience. Keep up the excellent service Arbor provides. My last conversation was with Olive. Wonderful experience. Thank you Olive.

Kim, we know that first leap can feel like a gamble, so it means a lot that the skepticism turned into lower utility costs and one of your best choices. 🌳 We're glad the rate-shopping chore is off your plate, the updates have been clear with every move, and your latest support conversation left you feeling so well taken care of — thank you for recommending us!

I should be saving more than 15 a month.

Reply from Arbor

Hi Lori, appreciate you sharing your feedback and we're sorry the savings haven't lived up to your expectations. We tried giving you a call and also sent an email so we can walk through your account together.

For some context: the rate plans we secure are personalized to your specific utility account and usage, sourced from our trusted supply partners, with the goal of maximizing your savings versus what you'd pay without Arbor, alongside protection from predatory practices and market volatility.

When we enrolled you in your fixed rate of $0.0973/kWh with APG&E in April, AEP Ohio's default rate was $0.0994/kWh and it has since risen to $0.10969/kWh, so your locked rate is saving you even more now than when it started. While $15 a month may not seem like much, it's savings you wouldn't otherwise receive on the default rate, through a completely free service.

We're a small, young company genuinely working in our customers' best interest and feedback like yours helps us improve. We welcome the opportunity to connect and answer any questions. You can reach us at 888-836-3145 (Mon–Fri 9am–5pm EST) or support@joinarbor.com. All the best 🌳.

A person from Arbor was always in touch with what they were doing to help find the best electric price for me - and they did. It's so easy, just sign up and they will take it from there. I emailed them several times checking in on the status and they always got back to me.

Happy to do the legwork so you don't have to, Robert. 🌳 We'll keep chasing down great rate plans and earning that "no brainer."

I'm a new customer.

I'm a new customer, we haven't known each other long. I'm trusting you to help me manage a significant percentage of my monthly expenses. I feel a bit at risk.
Olive's message said, in essence, 'glad we could help, please call whenever we can help.' I believe she meant it. I also got the impression she believed in the firm, and was proud of her daily contribution.
That only happens when the employee is treated as well as the customer. That's where customer service begins... or ends. Too many employers don't realize that and wonder why the people they hired to serve customers don't have their hearts in it.
This new customer now has increased confidence in the decision he made to work with ARBOR. I don't know how either ARBOR or I could get any more out of those few words Olive and I exchanged.
'Hope that helps.

I was not sure I would save any money with Arbor, but glad I was wrong!! Thought it was a scam, but then Penn Power just started going up and up in price, so I figured how much more could I loose? Every month has been a game changer. I think up to July 2026 I have saved $110+! Trust Arbor and trust you’re gonna save!!

Arbor linking

It was a little frustrating trying to link up the account. Not sure if it was me not doing it correctly or not. After I received the correct directions it worked out fine.
Thank You

Early Termination Charge Reimbursement

I received an early termination charge after the cancellation of a former agreement when Arbor was securing me a better rate. I wasn't previously aware of Arbor's Early Termination Fee policy, and customer service was great in resolving the issue.

Hey Karen! We read your feedback and are sorry for the misunderstanding.

We'd love to clarify our Early Termination Fee (ETF) policy: Arbor is commitment-free and will cover any early termination fees (ETFs) incurred as a result of a supply rate switch or cancellation through Arbor.

If you receive an official bill from a supplier or utility that explicitly states an ETF is owed, simply email us with a copy of the bill attached, and we will promptly reimburse you.

We've emailed you directly to request a copy of the ETF and look forward to your reply 🌞 Thank you for giving us the opportunity to clarify. All the best.
