Up to 35,000 Velocity points for switching to AGL Energy

[kyle]

Why can't they just give points on any plan!!!

Currently on family and friends plan. Electricity is 0.22858 and daily supply is 0.77858.

Velocity offer: 0.2475 and 0.84348.

If I switch out I probably can't get back in. At the higher rates, I'll probably break even over a year taking into account the sign up offer.

Anyone else receive a call from Red Energy asking why you were moving to AGL?
I told them, for the Velocity Points, and the sales person said he had been hearing that same reason all day.
He is going to call back in a couple of months as I'll be happy to switch back after the points have landed, and offered some $ incentives. I think it was $75 credit for electricity and $25 for gas. I'll see if they'll offer any QF points too.

Yes, every time I have churned out they have called to ask if there's anything they can do to keep me. Origin Energy does the same.

No call here.
Happy to inform them it's the points, the seat is points.
Let them know some of us are suckers for points, then we pay for it with slightly increased rate for kw/h & gas.

I've now had to sign up three times because of AGL's incompetence. I really hope it's worth it for the points.

Just got a follow up call from AGL trying to sell me gas (no gas at property), connections at other properties, internet, and more - had to cut her off and say thanks but no thanks.

I have had trouble as well.
phoned for offer.
First call, agent didn’t seem to know what he was doing.
Think he just changed my address from an account that was closed 3 years ago when I moved to current address.

Have done 3 calls giving details each time.
Received several emails and several SMS.
Downloaded app (uninstalled and re installed 3 times as directed on subsequent calls)

The App says I am on value saver.
Should it say Velocity value saver?

when I try to look at plan details in app it gives error message saying not available now and to try again later. This has happened every day.
