Regulator to Examine Retail Supplier's Application of Termination Fees
The Connecticut PURA has re-opened the licensing docket of Viridian Energy, Inc. to examine the supplier's alleged application of termination fees to certain customers.
PURA said that, "The Authority has received complaints regarding the assessment of early termination fees by Viridian. Specifically, consumers allege that Viridian automatically renewed customers to a fixed rate contract at the end of a previous contract without customer consent or authorization. If the customer then left Viridian by switching to another supplier or returning to Standard Service during the term of the renewed contract, Viridian assessed an early termination fee on the grounds that the early termination fee provision was contained in the renewed contract."
Viridian provided the following statement to EnergyChoiceMatters.com:
"Viridian Energy continues to work closely with the Connecticut Public Utilities Regulatory Authority (PURA) in order to maintain our reputation as a leading supplier of affordable, responsible energy. We are deeply committed to serving Connecticut customers in a manner that is fully compliant with both PURA standards and state law and look forward to resolving this matter swiftly."
