Yes, I did eventually hear from Eversource.

This happened to me the last time when I switched from Eversource. However, a few weeks after I got the verification email, I got another email that said:

"We have received an enrollment rejection from your local utility, Eversource, for ANE- Account Not Eligible. This means that a block has been placed on your account that prevents it from switching to a supplier."

As I wrote in my other post, Eversource may have your account listed as "Financial Hardship" even if you did not ask for it. They automatically did that to a lot of people. If so, you cannot change suppliers until you ask Eversource (in writing!!!) to remove the "Financial Hardship" from your account. They have a pdf form for you to do that.

I've switched back and forth to several companies over the years. My latest switch was from Eversource to Constellation. When I had switched from Town Square back to Eversource, they actually had competitive rates. Not anymore.

There are no cancellation fees in CT, despite what some suppliers may have on their website.

The electricity itself comes from the New England power grid and is generated by a variety of power plants throughout the region.

After that, there are two parts: Supply & Delivery. In all cases, Eversource is the "Deliverer" because they own and "maintain" the lines and infrastructure. They charge for delivery based on how many kWhs you use.

The "Supplier" can be changed. It could be Eversource or it could be a third party such as Constellation, Direct Energy, Town Square, etc. These third parties do not generate electricity - they buy it in bulk from the power plants and resell it to you. Sometimes, their price is lower than Eversource, sometimes it is higher. Short of using less electricity, this is the only place you can save. The resellers offer a certain rate for a certain number of billing cycles. After those cycles end, the rate usually goes up so you have to mark your calendar and change again - although they have sent me an email reminding me that my rate was about to expire.

To answer any question about power going down: You can lose power if there is a problem with the lines or Eversource infrastructure. However, the third party resellers are only resellers - they don't generate power. If part of the NE Power Grid goes down, it switches to a different part of the grid.

BTW, Eversource may have your account listed as "Financial Hardship" even if you did not ask for it. They automatically did that to a lot of people. If so, you cannot change suppliers until you ask Eversource (in writing!!!) to remove the "Financial Hardship" from your account. They have a pdf form for you to do that.

Look up "Spatchcock"

You can also take your own passport photo. There are several apps for your phone that will correctly size the photo and put 4 on a single 4x6 jpg.

Then upload it to Wallgreens/CVS and pay $0.28 for a 4x6 instead of $16.99 for a passport photo.

Here are some examples: https://fixthephoto.com/best-passport-photo-app.html

I did my last two passports this way. No problems at all.
