I'd personally like for them to make it legal for me to straight up bitch slap the cunts for sanctimoniously telling me "How to save power and reduce your bills" by turning off my lights after they've jacked the price AGAIN

I would like them to be held to the prices advertised on Victorian Energy Compare.

If they expect us to sign a 12 month contract. They need to provide a 12 month price guarantee.

Once upon a time I got charged a 'minimum usage fee', for not using enough electricity. Wrap your head around that one. And yes the bill had those rude saving tips all over it.

Can we all agree that energy retailers are a collosal waste of time?

They provide literally no value.

Bring back government run energy distribution and retail. What is the fucking point?
