        Kind of kills the deal lol

        • virhlpool on 22/05/2020 - 13:43

          True. I will definitely end up paying more than $110 worth of premium to EA over ReAmped Energy in 6 months, before I could move back to ReAmped or anywhere else.

  • xsacha on 22/05/2020 - 09:25

    Does this also work for their 'ON' brand?

  • jackwilk on 22/05/2020 - 09:29

    how are their prices for electricity and gas compared to other retailers?

      Surprisingly, not absurd. You can check it before signing up. The $200 really sweetens the deal.

    • cheaponos on 22/05/2020 - 09:49

      For SEQ their rates are a fair bit higher that kills the cashback very quickly.

      • jackwilk on 22/05/2020 - 09:52

        that's what I suspected. Amaysim had similar deal last year and their bonus wasn't worth higher fees…thanks.

    • Trance N Dance on 22/05/2020 - 10:04

      They're one of the cheapest for my neighborhood lol (at least for our usage pattern).

    • abctoz on 22/05/2020 - 10:43

      i just moved off them their rates aren't the cheapest

    • Nick K on 22/05/2020 - 11:05

      I did some calculations roughly using 'average household' and it turned out a bit more expensive than origin maximum saver plan. So if I add in my real usage (above average) then it would be more expensive. Therefore this $200 wouldn't offset the higher rates.

    • Diji1 on 22/05/2020 - 13:29

      how are their prices for electricity and gas compared to other retailers?

      They can't tell you, prices are dynamic.

      According to ACCC, most Australian's have no idea what they're buying when they purchase electricity which is by design.

  • cpho on 22/05/2020 - 09:29

    Thanks OP - was waiting for this deal. Origin upped their pricing on me so time to jump ship

    • Nick K on 22/05/2020 - 11:06

      I calculated this against the origin max saver plan and origin still looked cheaper? Different with yours?

      • cpho on 22/05/2020 - 11:44

        Yeah different for me. Energy Australia is cheaper in my situation

    I suggest people compare the rates and fees. The costs may outweigh the benefits for some.

    • Diji1 on 22/05/2020 - 13:31
      +1

      Comparing rates, fees and terms and conditions takes hours for one retailer. Naturally people will compare many retailers and waste many hours.

      For some reason crayon munching people say that this is "better customer service" compared to nationalised electricity where the customer never wasted hours of their life.

      • BuyOrNot on 22/05/2020 - 18:45

        If you upload the electricity usage data file to the Vic comparison website, it literally takes seconds to give you the list of cheapest electricity plans.

  • chuneeperformance on 22/05/2020 - 09:47

    What the solar fit?

  • thestig on 22/05/2020 - 10:04

    I used the Vic energy compare website to find the cheapest rate and get a $50 one off rebate. Then I searched the cheapest companies in cash rewards and got $112 cashback through the energy compare company on there who offered the same deal as the Vic compare website. Not much as the $200 cashback here but worked out better given the cheaper rates.

    • FlatulentFrank on 22/05/2020 - 12:26

      Which company

      • thestig on 22/05/2020 - 13:43

        Energy Compare. I used Tango so can search that too but it seems to go through the Energy Compare site too.

  • pyr0maniac on 22/05/2020 - 10:11

    I'm with AGL and my account is in credit after the QLD government rebate, any idea if I will lose that credit if I transfer to another provider (I can't withdraw it to my bank account given that it is from the government rebate)

    • abhiz on 22/05/2020 - 14:54

      They will pay outstanding $$ to your bank account.

  • kenneth88 on 22/05/2020 - 10:27

    exclude Solar… ouch!
    with the current buyback rate (and the CR incentive) so tempt to sign up without disclosing solar lol

  • TomGum on 22/05/2020 - 10:39

    Has anyone’s purchase tracked already?

    • skid on 22/05/2020 - 10:44

      Last time, mine tracked 3 days after sign up. Not 100% sure, but I think you need to sign up to the plan that is linked from the CR page.

      • TomGum on 22/05/2020 - 10:49

        Yeh I clicked through Shop Now.

        • skid on 22/05/2020 - 10:50

          I mean you might have to sign up to the plan that is on the page linked from CR and not another EA plan.

          • TomGum on 25/05/2020 - 12:04

            @skid: Mine just tracked today. It says estimated approval date is 18 Nov. does that mean I need to stay with them that long?

  • grips on 22/05/2020 - 10:40

    "Cashback is not available on solar electricity plans"
    I feel discriminated against …

    • forkus on 22/05/2020 - 10:58

    For Ausgrid area, please be aware that EnergyAustralia charges peak rate at 40+ cents throughout the whole year. Some retailers only charge peak rates across winter and summer.

      And one of Australia’s largest “tax avoiders” https://thenewdaily.com.au/finance/finance-news/2019/03/18/t…

      If shopping around for providers, which so few people do anyway, this is something else to consider if you can afford it.

      I Put tax avoiders in quotes as I can’t remember what the polite term is for the annual list of shitty companies the ato publishes that pay comparatively little to no tax in Australia.

    Anyone switching power/gas companies just for the signup bonus should look at Powershop. They have 200 if you do both atm, credited within 90 days, no need for cashback.

    • FlatulentFrank on 22/05/2020 - 12:27

      No contract? In Melb, it's cold and my energy bill is going to be scary

      • chimps on 22/05/2020 - 18:48

        Me too. I feel that I am paying lot more than the average rate in winter times compared to other households. Normally what is the average bill comes for winter months for someone who uses electricity for all heating?

        • FlatulentFrank on 22/05/2020 - 21:54

          "4 people" worth but it's really just the two of us.

    • ty99234 on 22/05/2020 - 12:31

      Doesn't seem available on their website. Would u mind providing a link？

    I've checked recently. EA's gas price is good. Electricity tends to come back best with Reamped. $50 sign up bonus, use link from Ozbargain, and both referrer and referee get $50. Pretty good.

  • screensaver on 22/05/2020 - 13:25

    Never received previous bonus from October and cash rewards make it impossible to track old claims… I’d suggest monitoring your cashback

  • doobes on 22/05/2020 - 19:11

    do not give this company any of your money
    https://www.michaelwest.com.au/energyaustralia-holdings-limi…

    Electricity and gas bills have doubled. Pay for executives and directors has shot up. Some 42,000 Australians live in energy poverty. This, once a state-owned enterprise, now has a parent company in a Caribbean tax haven and pays zero tax

  • abhideswal on 22/05/2020 - 21:37

    Does it stack with $50 credit offered by EA?

    • JIMB0 on 23/05/2020 - 13:56

      When clicking through the cashrewards link it indicates you will recieve a $50 credit on your first bill.

  • billy_bob on 22/05/2020 - 23:51

    Thanks OP, just signed up for their Gas plan. Calculated I will save about $400 over the next 6 months (including the $50 EA rebate and $90 Cashrewards).

  • [Deactivated] on 23/05/2020 - 13:21

    Thanks for posting OP. While I couldn't take advantage of the deal (having signed to EA last year with a similar cashback deal), it prompted me to review my rates.

    Did research on competitors and called up EA to review my account, they ended up offering me rates on both elec & gas that were competitive amongst best in the market (elec actually beat Reamped). Should save about $60 per bill from now!

  • s0805 on 26/05/2020 - 23:03

    Hi OP, any sign of this deal coming back…especially the gas cashback

  • randomusername99 on 04/06/2020 - 14:01

    It's open again, however now $70 for electricity and $40 for gas. Not limited to just Energy Australia, other providers available through Econnex.

  • screensaver on 05/06/2020 - 04:38

    Nectr now have a refer a friend program so you get a $200 giftcard to sign up, plus $50 credit after you pay your first bill, plus 50 for referrals, plus 50 after 12 months
