Hi Tammy. Sorry if this issue is causing you trouble. I can tell you that the retail electric provider will be removed from your account once we have received paperwork showing you have requested the removal. And it looks like we sent you an email to confirm this information. If you want us to send a second email we can certainly do that. Please give us a call or reach out via Facebook or Twitter if you have questions — that is the quickest, most efficient way. Thanks for writing.
