My neighbours and I recently received credit payments on accounts from our energy suppliers as a result of their Service Level Agreement with AusNet. We're located in Warburton. Why isn't there any mention of these payments on Momentum's website and are Momentum clients in Melbourne also eligible for those payments?
Hey Biffityboo, these credits are passed on by Ausnet with no involvement from Momentum. They're more or less as compensation for brown/black outs that have occurred over the past year and certain cus...
Read moretomer's service has been affected to a standard that entitles them to compensation. Eligibility is entirely defined by Ausnet so we don't advertise this on our website. I hope this helps. ~ Alexander, Community Manager
Hi got my electricity bill it says I'm -$15 what does that mean I think it's strange cause I've never received a bill like that before ever if u can know please kelly
Hey Kelly, if your bill is a negative total such as -$15 it means that you're account is in credit by 15 dollars. This will go towards your next bill when it's calculated. I hope this helps! ~ Alexander, Community Manager
What is Peak - Step 1 as opposed to Peak - Step 2?
Hey Bill, stepped tariffs were introduced by the government to create incentive for people to better manage their elec/gas usage. They function similarly to your mobile phone plan, after using all you...
Read morer allocated data for a month you might be charged $10/gigabyte, after consuming a certain quantity of electricity/gas you move up to a higher rate. These tariffs are set by your distributor/network, but because in some cases this discriminates against larger families, some distributors have lower step 1 tariffs, and sometimes have a step 3. If you give us a ring, or send a message to our Facebook page I can take a look at who your network/distributor is and let you know what these different rates are. I hope this helps, let me know if you have any more questions. ~Alexander, Community Manager
I am in an embedded network in an apartment building. I have heard that this year that embedded networks will be open to retail competition will I be able to get momentum energy?
Hi Peter,
Thank you for your comments. ...
Read more In Victoria customers within Embedded Networks always had a choice to purchase electricity from any licenced energy retailer. Momentum Energy is working closely with industry participants to get a clarity regarding the roles & responsibilities of various market participants within the embedded network segment. By end of this year it is expected that these roles & responsibilities will be defined that would eventually better assist customers within embedded networks to access offers from various licenced energy retailers such as Momentum Energy. Kind Regards, Momentum Energy
Does Momentum Energy provide daily usage details eg. via their web site and/or iOS app?
Hi Peter,
Thank you for your enquiry. ...
Read more Unfortunately, Momentum do not have a direct portal where you can access your usage data. We also presently do not have an available app. However, if you are located in Victoria and you have a smart meter, you can visit your network's portal link directly on their website. For your reference, your network is the company who owns the metering, maintains and supplies electricity in your area. The usage portal on your network's website will provide you access to your usage and the website also provides some energy saving tips. You can find out who your network is by referring to the top right hand corner of your Momentum invoice. Alternatively, please email us your account number, full name and address to [email protected] and we will be able to provide your usage data and let you know who your network is. Warmest regards, Momentum Energy Team
As a New Customer from today, switching both Gas and Elect, this would be a great feature, Being able to monitor your usage even if it was a few hours old is GOLD.
Is there a charge for connecting solar panels to my electricity meter? If so what is the cost. I am currently a momentum customer for power. Also, what feed in rate is current for any excess power generated we feed into the grid and how long will that rate apply before it changes? We live in Adelaide. Email [email protected]
Good Morning Ian,
Thank you for your submission. ...
Read more South Australia Power Networks (SAPN) have a Solar enquiry line 1300 665 913 to assist their customers with solar queries. They will be able to advise any costs associated with a meter exchange and they invoice customers directly. Please be advised for small business and commercial customers in South Australia changes to metering may result in an Actual or Agreed Demand tariff. The current solar rebate available is 6.8c, however, this may vary depending on your current tariff and metering set up. In terms of when this rebate may change, this will be subject to State Government legislation and for more information please see: http://www.sa.gov.au/topics/water-energy-and-environment/energy/rebates-concessions-and-incentives/solar-photovoltaic-systems/solar-feed-in-scheme For any further queries do not hesitate to contact our Customer Care team on 1300 662 778.

Where do I go to get a copy of my Gas Bill with Momentum? I have my electricity with them and can easily access electricity through their Toolbox but finding Gas seems to be virtually impossible despite a Google search. Losing the will to live. :-(
Hi Caz,
Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback about our online Toolbox. ...
Read more Momentum is in a very exciting phase having recently moved into the retail gas market in Victoria. In order to ensure the smoothest transition and best billing experience possible we have separate account numbers and toolboxes for gas and electricity. Toolbox allows you to view the billing and contact information for each specific account be it business or residential. At this stage our Toolbox does not show a holistic view of all your accounts with Momentum and as we grow as a business we are seeking to improve our online usability. I apologise for any frustration trying to access your invoice and can advise that your gas account number will be listed on your gas welcome pack or you can contact our friendly Customer Care team on 1800 662 778 or via email [email protected] to confirm. Kind Regards, Thor
Hi do you install solar panels?
I don't think they do. I got mine through envirogroup who were very good.

what are the off peak electricity hours?
Hi Doug,
Peak and off-peak timings for electricity vary from distributor to distributor. The distributors are the ones owning and managing the poles and wires, and who set the timings. On your curren...
Why did I receive a second gas bill before the due payment date of my last bill?
I had in fact paid the first bill three days early and then received the second bill with another total amount due that included the amount I had just paid.
If I hadn't investigated I would have paid that amount twice. What is going on here?
Judging by the reviews here I've made a poor choice. Will now review my original 'fixed price contract'. Which is fixed only for me not Momentum.
Good afternoon Bob and thank you for contacting us to advise us of the difficulties that you are experiencing. Has your issue now been resolved? If not, we'd like to take the opportunity to address yo...

I will pay only the 2nd amount and look for another biller who puts customers first. If I find I'm am locked in I will go to the regulator.
What is the peak and off peak times for Momentum? Can't find it in their website.
Good Morning Ceb,
Thank you for your enquiry on Product Review. ...
Read more Peak and Off Peak times can vary depending on your state and distribution patch. Generally in Victoria, the off peak timings are Weekdays 11pm – 7am and all Weekends and Public Holidays. Due to the complexity of these tariffs, their timings and the metering type at your site, we would like to discuss this with you so we can provide you a more detailed explanation. Could you please email our Customer Care at [email protected] with your site address and contact details and we can arrange a call to discuss this with you. Thank you. We look forward to hearing from you soon. Kind Regards, Momentum Energy
I am going to move to mentone victoria I need to know which energy company is offers a good value . Any advise ?
Karina,
Based on my experience with Momentum I am satisfied with their rate and service.
First I changed the electricity provider in my warehouse, because I wanted to test it first. After 3 or 4 months, I changed

Hi Karina,
As you can see above Momentum Energy is crap. Eva will change her tune given time. Anyone else but Momentum!

Is momentum energy also known as simply energy?
Not as far as know
I was told that Momentum Energy did trade as Simply Energy in Queensland but cannot verify that. Their strategies seemed very similar and apparently the Qld Energy Ombudsman stopped Simply Energy fro...
Read morem signing new customers after it was found that they were promoting solar and promising feed in tariffs but then reneging. This is one of my numerous grievances with Momentum.Hi Sneakersoles and thanks for your question,
Simply Energy is a competitor to us and we're not affiliated with them in any way.
Have a good weekend, TB
hi, we live 3028, have solar installed, what is your feed in tarrif rate please. at the moment we get 35c from retailer we are churning from in next 7 days. due too billing hassles and huge increase in daily supply charges.
I dont have any solar sorry cant help you with the rate. I certainly dont recommend momentum energy, as they have not got one bill right in the 9 months i was with them. Good luck!
Hello, I think you may have presumed I have solar on one, or all, of my premises. I have no solar and cannot comment on Momentum feed in (from solar) prices . My prices, including GST are: Peak $.211...
Read more97/kwh, Off Peak $.12749/kwh (for the "old fashioned" hot water) and a Service To Property charge of $.7986/day and are absolutely fixed for the next 12 months (to 31/12/14). The prices are for my grid supplier in my area being United Energy. If in your area the grid is supplied by another supplier the prices will be different. In regard to solar feed in tariffs, ring Momentum on 03 86126400. You should get easy answers, with straight prices, no discounts on "this or that", (or not on "that") and just net numbers. I hope you resolve your issues with whichever supplier you choose. Electricity pricing is a minefield, and I have made mistakes in the past, even though I should (by profession), know what I am doing!
Be very careful about changing your retailer depending on what feed-in tariff you are on. The old closed Premium and Transitional feed-in tariffs are linked to the property and you can change retailer...
Read mores, but the 1:1 Standard feed-in tariff (also now closed as of Dec 12 2012) is a negotiated agreement with your current retailer, and you'll lose it if you swap. They'll put you on the current 8c/kWh FiT. So be very sure when talking to your proposed new retailer what your new FIT will be.
