The Village of Arlington Heights has received complaints about electricity supply solicitors. Some of these solicitors are misrepresenting themselves as “the Village’s new supplier.”

Last spring, following passage of the referendum, the Village of Arlington Heights signed a contract with Integrys Energy Services. Residents received a letter from Integrys giving them the option of opting-out of the switch; everyone who did not opt-out has already been switched to Integrys for energy supply.

Integrys has not and will not do any soliticitation of residents, either over the phone, or door-to-door. Any solicitor identifying themselves as being with “the Village’s electric supplier” is being dishonest.

Other electricity suppliers may solicit for customers; door-to-door solicitors must obtain a permit within the Village of Arlington Heights.

If you receive any type of solicitation from an electricity supplier, the option of signing a contract is up to you. Keep in mind that if you have been switched to Integrys, and decide to switch again to another supplier, you may be charged an early termination fee.
