Hi Breanna, thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We're always happy to assist our members with their inquiries. It looks like the specific account issue you were experiencing required a two-week waiting period to rectify itself, which our team mentioned in our communications with you. With that said, I've put a note on your account so that our team can follow up and assist you further. Looking forward to speaking with you more!
Great customer service
They give you tips on how to save money on your electric bill. They have a rewards program when you cut down on usage. They inform you when your bill has been paid. I'm a new customer so haven't had a lot of experience with them except what I already stated. I'm pleased with them overall and look forward to doing business with them.

I appreciate the opportunity to earn extra money back for saving but I highly dislike that we can loose reward points when we end up not making the save quota.

Startup and initial billing.
I was very pleased with the ease of changing from another company to Ohm and the rate/kw that I received from Ohm.

Hi Nancy, we appreciate you sharing your feedback about OhmConnect. We're a free program that rewards people for saving energy when the grid is stressed. We'll send you an alert for an event and you can choose to power down your unnecessary devices and appliances, or we can do the powering down for you through the smart devices that you link to your account. When you save energy, we reward members with Watts that can be redeemed for various goods such as gift cards, smart devices, cash via PayPal, and more! If you have further questions about how OhmConnect works, please feel free to reach out to one of our help channels and our team would be happy to chat with you further.
Not perfect but not bad either.
I like how I can reduce my energy usage with Ohmconnect. The rewards are enticing, and saving energy using Ohmconnect is simple and effective. However, I wish there were more Ohmhour opportunities. Also, sometimes it is hard to save during Ohmhours because my energy usage is already low. I don't like losing my points when there wasn't much I could do to save, other than leaving the apartment and shutting off all electronics.

Hi William, a quick update as it looks like our team was able to share tips for saving energy as a low-energy user, we hope you found that information helpful. Again, we're glad to hear that you find saving energy with OhmConnect to be simple and effective! As a reminder, OhmHour opportunities depend on when the grid is stressed, so there tend to be more OhmHours in the warmer months when people are using more energy at home. Please feel free to reach out to us if you have any other questions or concerns!

I have seen no real incentives to continue. I’m waiting to see if my PGE bill goes up. If so, I’ll be canceling this.

Hi Donna, thank you for leaving us a review. Our members enjoy redeeming their Watts for rewards such as smart devices to help you save even more energy, gift cards, giveaway prize entries, and even cash via PayPal. Energy-saving events (a.k.a. opportunities to earn Watts) in your area may be less frequent in the colder months because the grid isn't as stressed as it would be in the summer months. So, it's likely that you may feel more incentivized in the warmer months! With that said, we respect every member's decision to do what they believe is best for their household. If you ever need any assistance with your account, please reach out to one of our help channels and our team is more than happy to assist.

Bait and switch tactic, offer not honored
You offered me a $5 monthly credit if I signed up via a Google nest message, but when I signed up within days and asked for it, I was told that offer was not active. It was a total bait and switch tactic. Not cool at all.

Reply from OhmConnect
Hi Miranda, thank you for sharing your experience with OhmConnect. It looks like you've chatted with our team about this offer. We understand how this may feel like a bait and switch, however, as we mentioned in our communications, the offer you were referring to was no longer current. We do greatly appreciate you bringing this to our attention because we were able to work with Google to get it removed. With that said, you can still participate in OhmConnect to earn other rewards and cash. If you have further questions, please don't hesitate to reach out to us at one of our help channels.
