Disclaimer: REPs are scored into five groupings of approximately equal size based on a 6-month rolling average of complaint rates per 1,000 customer relative to other companies. Signficant changes in the complaint score may occur from month-to-month or smaller EPs based on only a few complaints. This complaint score card should be viewed as only one measure of the customer service provided by REPs.Please note the complaint score is based on a rolling 6-month average of the total number of informal complaints investigated, irrespective of whether or not the company was determined to be at fault or adequately resolved the customer's complaint. In many cases, the PUC's informal complaint process adequately addresses the customer complaints with quick resolution by the REP. You may wish to also review other resources regarding a REP's customer service such as your local Better Business Bureau.
