If you live in energy deregulated US state, you have the right to choose who supplies your electricity, and for what price. Ambit Energy is one of the retail providers serving the needs of the deregulated energy community. To find about rates, plans, its unique business model and customer service, read on.

About Ambit Energy

Based in Dallas, Texas, the energy supplier Ambit Energy provides affordable electricity and natural gas rates to customers in Texas and in deregulated markets across the US. The two company founders, Jere Thompson, Jr. and Chris Chambless famously founded the company over lunch, and in just over 14 years they have grown it into one of the most-respected retail energy providers in America.

In 2011, it was named one of Inc. Magazine’s Fastest-Growing Private Companies for the second year in a row. In 2012, it exceeded 1 million active customers and received an A+ rating from the independent energy marketplace watchdog, Better Business Bureau (BBB).

The business model is set up on energy services marketing through direct sales of more than 250,000 Independent Consultants, who are incentivized to sell low energy bills to their customers. As a result, Ambit Energy is able to provide top-class customer service and support, even though their electricity rates are on average slightly higher than other competitive retailers.

A part of the annual ritual, the 2020 Ambit Energy Simulcast conference in January was hosted by the energy company, to provide its independent consultants with core training and insights for the job.

Ambit Energy Customer Reviews

Customer reviews can be very misleading. Customers, who take the time to leave a review are often motivated either by a particularly negative, one-off experience with their energy provider or somehow incentivized to write a positive, and not always truthful review. That is not to say that all online reviews are untrue, but a healthy dose of skepticism is warranted when scrolling through a website with a streak of five-star reviews.

However, there are a couple of relatively unbiased institutions that seek to improve trust between Texans and businesses – a non-profit market analyst Better Business Bureau and the regulatory institution Public Utility Commission of Texas.
