These guys are a scam

These guys are a scam. The number they listed on the website doesn't work. When asked to select 1 or 2 and selected, it just hangs up saying not a valid option. They took my details and switched me over to different energy company. But the energy company didn't give me any plan details within 10 days cooling off period. They asked me to call back these guys to get the plan details. Also they call you from a 04 numbers and you can't ring those numbers back as well. If you get a call from these guys, please hang up.

Cold calling nuisance company

This company uses mined data such as name, address and phone number to cold call people using Indian call centres. I have received over 50 calls over the last couple of months where once you answer they hang up.
Very poor ethics.

They come across as UN ethical prospecting

Didn’t tell my mother they weren’t from Alinta until Right at the end of the conversation , a week after taking my mothers details, she is all of a sudden getting a heap of thease spam emails and SMS’s . I wonder why?? The offshore Indian companies they use will “harvest” your personal details and give it to all the spammers & scammers in the country. Call the electricity company directly and don’t use a third party. I think they forgot the letters UN infront if their business name!

Look at all the reviews posted

Look at all the reviews posted. All are fake. These guys are actually scammers. They try to make you buy itunes gift cards and tell them the codes under a guise of cheap electricity. They called my elderly mother and tried to scam her like this.

Reply from Ethical Prospecting Pty. Ltd.

Hi Curtis, we have built a reputable business over 5 years. Over that period of time we have never offered iTunes gift cards as part of our service offer. Would it be possible to have a quick chat with you to investigate what you are claiming. Please feel free to give us a call on 0391137601.
