Core gas aggreggation service?

Had some people from Vista Energy Marketing ring my doorbell this afternoon. The guy claimed they can lower my natural gas bill by 15% over PG&E, although there's no specific figure cited in the handout they gave me.

I looked it up on the PG&E website, and there's a very short, formal explanation of what it is, but nothing about benefits/drawbacks. There was a FAQ link but it was dead.

So, what's the catch?

We rarely get doorknockers out here, but when somebody does approach, the first thing I do when I open the door is stick my phone up and snap a picture of their face.

I tell them if any homes in the area get broken into, their picture is going the the Sherriff.

They usually don't stay long.

WOW! ^ that is sad. Yesterday I was at the condo trying to get it ready to start renting. The next door neighbors showed up for the first time so I popped over to say hi and introduce myself. When I knocked they called from the living room and said come in. Then strolled to the front to say hello. I waited at the door for them to show , but its nice to see that kind of openess still exsits

Cheers Richard
