I had Ambit last year, with no issues changing when their rate was expiring, now I have Inspire. Both have no termination fees. You aren't losing anything, but you do need to stay on top of it. They usually have longer contracts with termination fees so you get a rate that's lower in the winter than national grid but higher in the summer. Most of these rates are abnormally low to get you to join then when your rate expires, you get a higher market rate. As long as you pay attention, watch when National Grid posts their new rate on their website, and know what kind of contract you are signing up for, you'll be good and saving money.

I had to double check to be sure - Ambit is a MLM. - possible Ponzi scheme. I would steer clear.

That's how they sell their plans, I didn't buy from a rep, but I wouldn't hesitate to. They were very easy to cancel, and I got them at 9.5¢ when national grid was 14.5¢ last year. Your energy company still delivers the energy, just at the rate established by the supplier. They have a regular plan or a cool one for people with electric heat that has half priced electricity during 4 winter months.
