So as a customer in Colorado while yes technically you save know it’s only like 3 bucks a month . It took 4 months to get on a farm. But they were still charging you and if you wish to cancel because you’re really not saving money, it will take them another 3 to 4 months to let you cancel while you still pay them so kinda not really worth the hassle of joining

I tried to get behind this solar community idea. After being a customer for 6 years, I can confidently say I ended up losing money. After countless “issues with my solar farm” and being bounced from farm to farm with little to no benefits, I wanted to cancel, but still stayed since it was difficult to cancel, and they take control of your utility provider account (COMED in my case). Arcadia routinely charged me erroneously high bills higher than direct from COMED (some were exactly double my bill ) and refused to refund it. I spent many hours talking to them on the phone and via email, without any explanation or resolution.

In reply to Cheryl. That helps Cheryl. Thank you very much. Interested to see what you find. Seems experience is vastly different across different state lines.

Just wanted to let you know that in NY as a customer of National Grid, I am billed by my provider and not Arcadia. Arcadia is on my National Grid bill as a credit. I don’t think I would have signed up otherwise. I realize we are one of a very few places this billing is available for. It’s only been two months so I haven’t seen any savings yet, but I do have shares on a solar farm in Brockport NY so time will tell if this is going to be beneficial.

I was considering becoming a client until I read these recent reviews. Arcadia’s marketing information appears to be suspect, as their calculated savings for customers are based on a metering system that has minimal impact on the final Pepco bill. Even more detrimental to the customer is that the accounting system computes bills in a manner unrelated to usage. So, thank you to the reviewers for saving me a considerable amount of time and potential headaches.

I enrolled in a service in NY, and it did not live up to its advertisement. Immediately after signing up, my electric bill surged by $180. Furthermore, they mandate a 90-day period to fully terminate the service, meaning I’m expected to pay approximately $400 per month for the next three months. This is exorbitant compared to my usual bill of around $200.

While they might be a legitimate company, their advertising tactics and staff approach are misleading and seem predatory. They give the impression that your bills will decrease, but in reality, they increase. Their business model is intentionally vague, leading to unpredictable expenses.

I live in Rockville, Md. I started with CleanChoice Energy, and this year they switched me to Arcadia. I seem happy with the change, but would like to know the connection between CleanChoice and Arcadia. Both seem to be suppliers of green electricity, but not producers themselves. I get my electricity still through PEPCO.

Signed up last summer (2022) via a door-to-door solicitation in Chicago. I have 4 meters, so that should have gotten the salesguy all excited. Its been 15 months. I cant see how they calculate the bills. The only data they give you is KwH each month. The final monthly bills for 15 months are all over the place (not a straight line relationship with KwH used) though bills are reasonably similar to before. Only prob is that only 1 of my 4 meters is actually connected to a solar farm so far. Been over a year — could solar farms be that in demand?

Last year, something happened and they stopped paying my bill. I had bills from my supplier in the hundreds.

Then, all of a sudden, they came back saying I was now being enrolled in a new way to pay and I would be on a side-by-side payment method. This meant I was about to pay them and my supplier around the same amount, theirs being higher than I had been paying all year to my supplier.

I asked about it and they just kept coming back with no real answer. I found that my credit card had had expired so let it run. Now they have cancelled my account.

Anyone considering signing up with Arcadia should take a look at what the BBB (Better Business Bureau) website has about them.
