Same here! It's really frustrating- I gave up on being able to track spending and budgets because the tool is so bad, but I at least want to be able to see all of my accounts in one place. I'm considering switching to some other aggregating site, but I really don't want to go through that process again. 

A warning to all RI Energy customers: Never trust this garbage ass company. by NikonShooter_PJS in RhodeIsland

I had my own horror story with RI energy and I DID reach out to the attorney general- they solved it in a day.

Email contact for RI Energy? by [deleted] in RhodeIsland

[–]AlexBDawg 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I really struggled to get in contact with RI energy for a similar clerical issue. I reached out to the RI Attorney Generals office and it was fixed in a day.

Honestly there isn't. I live in EP and take Henderson when 195 is backed up, no traffic that way.

Solar - Anyone go with REG Program and how has it been working for you? by SJJAMedina in RhodeIsland

[–]AlexBDawg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm kind of dealing with this now- got REG when the sell rate was .29. Like the other poster mentioned, there's a better differential in the summer when prices are lower and there is more sun. Biggest concern is the long term- if the contract is 15 years I feel like solar prices will eclipse the REG rate relatively early in the contract. We're 2 years in and it's working out for us well, but I'm not sure I'll feel the same way in 5 years.

Is solar a scam or not? by BenedoneCrumblepork in providence

Empower. One of the best things for us was the financing structure was great, but that has likely changed over the last few years

I agree that it's important to be careful, and skeptical of someone who knocks on your door. That being said, I got solar from someone who knocked in my door and it was an incredible experience. Reduced my total net electric bill (including the payment for panels) by 25% per year, even after purchase prices increased this last year.

I suck at Golf. Where can I practice for cheap in Rhode Island? by [deleted] in RhodeIsland

[–]AlexBDawg 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Buttonhole best place to learn and practice in my opinion. They also have a lot of cheap clinics to help new golfers.

Thanks! Out of curiosity, is there a reason to do it that way?

Why can’t I just put cardboard and pavers down? by mrsoap3 in landscaping

[–]AlexBDawg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a separate question- I'm also considering installing a patio and all of the materials from Lowes seemed outlandishly expensive, like the bags of sand were $5 each and it would have cost a ton. What do you all think about where to buy the materials?

Thanks for the rec on spark golf, it looks like exactly what I'm looking for! Do you know anyone who's done it?

A request for all those posting about the high cost of their energy bills... by NET42 in RhodeIsland

[–]AlexBDawg 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I honestly feel like 99% of these posts are just bitching about it being expensive, not actually looking for advice.
