Piece Description
Direct Energy sells electricity and natural gas in 20 states across the U.S. and in Canada. Thousands of Upstate New Yorkers have signed up to receive their energy through this supplier. For the last three years, Direct Energy has been offering competitive electric and natural gas prices within the Syracuse-area National Grid territory.
But some Central New Yorkers and a business group question Direct Energy's marketing tactics. This comes as Oswego police have arrested several people reportedly working for Direct Energy. Authorities say they were notified of suspicious people traveling door-to-door soliciting the sale of energy. After an investigation, three solicitors were found to be violating the city's hawking and peddling ordinance...meaning they were selling without a permit.
Jasmyn Belcher has more.
Police are advising residents who are approached by high pressure solicitors to ask for references and notify authorities immediately.
To register a complaint with the NYS Public Service Commission:
