We know that tracking market information and your own energy usage and spend data can be a key factor for making better energy buying decisions. Our Alerts and Reports features in MyAccount will put that valuable information at your fingertips.
Alerts
Usage and Spend Alerts
Under the 'More' tab, you’ll find the 'Set Usage and Spend Alerts' page. Here you can monitor your monthly usage and energy spend by tracking the differences in your utility meter reads. When your usage or spend varies from the previous meter read by a specific percentage that you set, MyAccount sends you an email alert notifying you of the variance. To set this alert:
- Select the meter read variance percentage that will trigger an alert to be sent.
- Select the accounts you would like to monitor with the usage and spend alert.
- Click 'Save Usage & Spend Alert Preferences' to set your alert.
Note: if you have more than one customer in MyAccount, you will have to select the customer you want the alert for on the 'Set Usage and Spend Alerts' page.
Price Alerts
On the 'More' tab, select 'Set Price Alerts' and you can monitor natural gas price movement and receive an alert(s) when the commodity price moves above or below your specified levels. When you set a Price Alert, if the market price (of whichever price index/indices) exceeds the high/low price you designate, you will receive an email and a message in MyAccount on the ‘Read Messages’ page (also under the ‘More’ tab). To set this alert:
- On the 'Set Market Alerts' page, click 'New Alert.'
- On the 'New Alert' page, select or fill in your criteria for the alert.
- Click ‘Save’ to set your market alert.
Important Note: Setting a Price Alert does not generate an order. Prices displayed are from Direct Energy and are provided for informational purposes only. They DO NOT represent your current price. Please note that pricing could be delayed or not representative of current prices, particularly during non-business hours. For the most up-to-date pricing information, please contact a Direct Energy Business Sales Representative.
Reports
On the 'Reports' tab, you'll find a listing of the preset reports available to you to run against your account data. Depending on which commodity/ies you have with us, you may have access to more or less reports than described here:
