Hearing Held And Continued In AG’s Lawsuit Against Resident Energy
As reported previously, the Illinois Attorney General has filed a lawsuit against retail electric supplier Residents Energy, alleging the company “employed fraudulent, unfair, and deceptive business practices to market and sell electricity services to consumers in Illinois. Among other practices, Residents has marketed its services by claiming consumers would save money on their electric bills when, in reality, consumers who switched to Residents virtually always paid considerably more for their electricity than they would have had they not switched.”
An initial hearing was held on July 11th and continued to August 27, 2024.
