stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • - Forced into ebilling; I didn’t sign up or get a statement.
  • - I want bills mailed; no mail option or printer.
  • - Don’t share my contact info or market to me.

I have been forced into e billing I didn't sign up for it It was forced by payment online when I didn't receive a statement and I paid online never again

Why a senior want to view a bill online I want to see my bill I don't have a printer I have a right to have my bill mailed It is deceitful what was done to me

diva2marry@***l. om is not an email I access often because I want my bills by mail

I tried all kinds of ways to reinstate receiving my bill by mail the option doesn't exist. Pure evil and deception on fpl part

You add things to agreements ie enrolling in ebilling I DID NOT ENROLL VOLUNTARILY for E BILLS

I don't want marketing mail via email or snail mail.

Please don't share my email or phone number outside of fpl too many scammers out there thank you

User's recommendation: don't pay online pay by mail or phone to avoid forced e billing

Bad news, e-billing is a way to save all rate holders money. No one should be forced to subsidize your obsessive need to keep a hard copy of every bill in a shoe box.

This is how it is. Nothing you can do about it but get used to it.

Wasted hours of my time and wasn't allowed to change name on account

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • - Tried to remove LLC so the home is my primary residence.
  • - SSN and license were requested with no feasible upload option, risking power shutoff.

HORRIBLE! I've owned a house in Miramar Beach since August 2021,and put it in the name of my LLC as I had planned to make it a vacation rental.

I decided not to, and to make it my primary residence. I simply wanted to remove the LLC from my account, and oh my goodness what a nightmare it turned into. I've spent over 2 hours on the phone this morning (I have proof), was told I had to close my account saying they would consider it a "move out" even though it's only a name change, I was asked repeatedly for my social security number which I will never give to a total stranger, I don't care who they work for. I was then told I would have to upload my driver's license, which I tried repeatedly to do, even with reps trying to help, it wouldn't allow it, and I asked how else I could upload it, perhaps email, to be told NO that I was just out of luck.

I was told if they did not receive my driver's license within a short period of time my power would be turned off! There was obviously a glitch on their website! All this because I simply wanted to change the name on my account! Your employees should not be asking for ANYONE'S social security number, this is how I had my identity stolen!

Then I insisted on speaking with a manager and was told it would be at least 2 days before they would contact me, all the while risking having my power turned off! I've never been late on paying my bills!!! Make name changes easier FPL, you can do this! Why are you complicating things that should be simple???

ZERO stars! So, I called again and just told them to put it back in the name of my LLC, leave it alone!

I was sickened that they were going to check my credit, good God, when I've paid all my bills on time this last 5 years, seriously??? I'm not borrowing a million dollars FPL I just want electricity!

Cons:
  • Terrible customer service

Preferred solution: Simply remove the name of my LLC off my account! I shouldn't have to end it like a "move out" and start over!

Most utility companies separate business and private accounts. You can't simply switch the name if you are switching between the two types of accounts. And asking for your social security number is common practice because they check your credit.

Can’t talk to a person it’s all automated

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

FPL sucks. I just spent 20 minutes on the phone going in circles on their automated system and it does not understand that I need to talk to them about an electric vehicle installation charger.

User's recommendation: Complain to them so they can actually pay a person to answer the phone

No live customer service person to speak with

AI Highlights
  • - Bill issue not resolved by automated system; the reviewer has been a customer for 40 years.
  • - The number is automated and has no live agents.

I have an issue with my bill that cannot be resolved by an automated system. I need to either chat or speak with a live customer service rep.

The number they provide is an automated system and does not have live agents.

I HATE FPL. I have had them as a provider for 40 years and their new no live agents to speak with seriously has changed my view of them.

User's recommendation: You have no choice but their customer service is a zero out of 10.

NO POWER 24 HRS AFTER DOWNED POLE

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • - A car accident damaged a pole powering our street; power is not restored.
  • - They text and email that the power is restored; we have called repeatedly.

They have NO CLUE what is going on.

A big car accident took down a pole that supplies power to our street last evening

FP&L got the downed equipment out of the road BUT DID NOT RESTORE THE POWER

NOW THEY SEND US TEXTS AND EMAILS SAYING THE POWER IS RESTORED

We have called repeatedly and repeatedly and repeatedly

It has been almost 24 hours and there is still no truck here to make repairs - HORRENDOUS

Preferred solution: POWER RESTORED!

User's recommendation: You have to call them every hour… And you’ll be lucky if anything happens at that
