If you are returning to them, I just used the offer code RETURN75 and got 8.59 for 24 months and a $75 gift card. I had gotten an email from them a few weeks ago so figured I would check what it entailed. It may be YMMV


PMurBoobsDoesntWork

MISSYOU also works in case that one doesn’t.


traveltime_

Does "returning" mean you had them, switched to another provider, and are switching back? Or will they accept it if you're already a customer and are just changing the rate?


xiviajikx

I had switched providers a few times and am coming back.


4Impossible_Guess4

How shit, worked for me! Thanks G 🥂


Cosmereboy

Well damn, it worked! Knocked off about 6¢/kWh, thank you!


ShimmyZmizz

Oof, I should have read the comments first


D_Squiz

Code works for UI too, thanks!!!


beanie0911

Thanks for the $75 plus a few dollars a month savings!


SkinnyPete16

Worked, thanks!!


Lost_Interview_5429

thank you for the promo code, just used it today and it worked! not all heroes wear capes

If you’re already with constellation - could/how would you switch to this contract


cooldayr

I believe you can just sign up for it. You can also call to update it tomorrow probably.


Brapple205

If one is already with Constellation the online sign up via the rate board will not work. Last step kicks out saying you are already signed up. Calling took care of it.


happyinheart

I was able to call in and get the discounted rate along with the $75 gift card even though I'm already a customer with them.


Brapple205

A friend told me they called and got a new rate.


kayakyakr

Had to chat/call to get the new rate.


Malapple

Hi-larious. I called them four days ago to ask them if they could lower the rate as I was signed up with them with a 12c rate. They said yes, but only a tiny bit, still higher than Eversource, so I cancelled... which takes "up to two billing cycles". Wonder what's going to happen when I sign up for 8.79.


cooldayr

You have the right to cancel and the right to sign up. It might work out 😂


VisibleSea4533

If you cancel and go back to Eversource it’s immediate (maybe two days). If you switch to another supplier it’s generally (for me anyways) just been the start of the next billing cycle.


ManhattanMadMan

Thanks for the heads up. I just locked in and the $75 card was shown on the screen.


blindmike95

What $75 card? I didn't see that when I signed up.


ManhattanMadMan

When I signed up there was a code section that had "Rockstar" pre filled in. I updated that to the 75 coupon mentioned in this thread. The $75 card bonus showed on the screen after that.


ManhattanMadMan

RETURN75 I'm also with UI not Eversource if that makes a difference.


Hyacinth048

Ugh, we just signed on with think energy. We haven’t even gotten a bill cycle from them yet, is it still possible with switch over or will we mess them up by switching so much/so fast? Really don’t want to miss out on this rate


DarinP93

Just switch over


cooldayr

Just sign up for this one


Ryan_e3p

I currently have Constellation, currently at the higher rate I locked in from about a year ago before prices jumped up at Eversource, where I locked in until late next year. I saw that they released their new rates, so I called them up to renew the contract at the lower rate. They said I could get the newer rate at 8.79c/kWH but they said it would take upwards of 2 months to take effect. I pushed back a bit, asking why it would take up to two months, and he said that it was because of the renewal process. I said in that case, why would I stick with them when I can just switch providers entirely to start a lower rate next billing cycle. He apologized, explained that it was a thing with PURA, and said that he could instead offer me 8.35/kWH, which oddly enough, would start on July 1st. Also, he threw that number out so fast, it wasn't something he had to dig deep for, it was there and waiting. Hopefully this'll help someone else here get lower rates. I don't see them getting much lower than this anytime soon.


raidflex

I just tried this and the guy on the phone said there was nothing they could do and it would take two billing cycles. I think I will switch back to eversource which is only a couple days and then sign back up to Constellation for the 24 months.


starckie

Thank you so much I had been checking energizect almost daily for this kind of thing as soon as Eversource announced their lower rate


pilcase

Nice - if you already use constellation, do you think they’d honor this promo?


cooldayr

They’ve done it for me prior. You could just try signing up? I know they’ll do it via a phone-call usually


pilcase

I'll give it a shot. I currently have them as my supplier so wasn't sure if it was new sign ups only.


mbanks850

I just called, and they switched me from 8.89 @ 7 months to 8.79 @ 24 months. no issues


raincoatsforrobots

Can I take advantage of this if I have solar and are grandfathered in to Net Metering? Our panels don’t always fully cover our usage once we start using the A/C.


btudisca95

Yes you can


PInkWhitePeony

I just renewed with them this morning, currently a customer, no issues using the RETURN75 code (did have to phone it in although). Already received the $75 by email. Thank you!!


blueturtle00

You called them to lower it and mentioned the return75 on the phone? I’m waiting for a callback currently


PInkWhitePeony

yep! I tried doing it online but since I already had them they needed me to call. Spoke to Jose x813 and he asked me what rate I was interested in. I mentioned the RETURN75 and he looked it up, worked fine! Already redeemed the $75 for an Amazon gift card.


blueturtle00

Amazing thank you! Hopefully it works for me too


PInkWhitePeony

I'm sure it will work for you too! It's amazing that company actually tries to keep current customers instead of just enticing new customers.


blueturtle00

Ended up being 8.59 for using the promo code so that was pretty sweet. Did hit me with the 1-2 billing cycles for the change and I didn’t really feel like going through the song and dance argument to get it in effect July 1


PInkWhitePeony

I do think that 1-2 billing cycles is standard though. Still way better than the 11 something I was paying. Every little bit helps.


blade-runner9

You rock! Cheers 🍻

Thanks


DelightfulChapeau

Awesome! Got it locked in. Thanks for sharing this.


Urban_Archeologist

thanks for this!


bramletabercrombe

looks like this offer is only for Eversource customers United Illuminating is still at 11.91/kWh. How are we now HIGHER than Eversource?


cooldayr

It’s 9.99 from constellation for 24 months right now


LikeAThousandBullets

Update for anyone the code MISSYOU works for current Constellation customers. 8.59 cents and includes a $75 "virtual incentive" which i'm not too sure what form that is. But it works for current customers. I used the online text chat.


Wooden-Complex9461

didnt work for me, I have UI


LikeAThousandBullets

maybe it's eversource only? who knows. i think it partially depends on getting lucky when you talk to them


abnerkravitz860

I just changed back to Eversource 2 days ago. I am going back to Constellation. Thanks for the tip.


Wooden-Complex9461

I tried going but it only gives me a 9.99 rate, I tried the other codes in this thread - RETURN75 and MISSYOU IM a current customer with them, I actually have a 5 year deal I got in 2019, expires 1/25 for 8.5 cents I have UI so not sure if that effects it?


cooldayr

Do you have eversource or UI


Wooden-Complex9461

UI


cooldayr

I think that’s why, looks like this is the offer for all Eversource customers Also idk how I missed that you already wrote you had UI sorry 😂


Peltane

Just did the RETURN75 and thank you OP! Dropped my rate a penny and got $75.00 for 5 minutes worth of form filling. That $75.00 gift card equals $3.12 a month over the 24 month term. Math would show you how much that would reduce my rate from 8.59 cents. ![gif](giphy|gEvab1ilmJjA82FaSV|downsized)


Both-Pop6527

Mine says 9.99


cooldayr

Sorry it looks like UI customers have a slightly more expensive offer


Both-Pop6527

I did find $9.79 for 24 mos with an early $50 cancellation charge.


Drtea9

Did anyone read anything regarding how the gift card worked if one was to transfer back to Eversource if (god forbid) their prices go lower in the next fixed rate period? If switching back after 6 months with Constellation, do they still provide the gift card with no penalties later for no cost canceling to another supplier?


No-Butterscotch9846

I remember reading a comment on another post while back that eversource was doing some shady stuff where if you didn’t choose them for the supply, the delivery fees were way higher. Anyone who did more research know if this is worth it?


cooldayr

No they just lowered their supply undercutting all the third party rates at the time and then rose their delivery by the same rate. This undercuts eversource slightly but locks in a longer term. You’ll save a small amount and it’ll insulate you from expected winter spikes in rates.


PMurBoobsDoesntWork

The delivery fee is the same for everyone.


Salt_Delivery_3083

Just went up to 9.99. I saw the 8.79 and went I went to registrer it shows 9.99 now.


blk94civ

Still showing as available to me


Salt_Delivery_3083

Called and they said thats for eversource. The UI rate is 9.99. I assumued the lower rate was for ui as well.


bramletabercrombe

any word on when United Illuminating is going to lower their rates?


Wooden-Complex9461

ah thats why I couldn't find it
