Fact or Fiction?????

As posted by a reader.

AUSNET claims it is illegal to offer OFF-PEAK rates on electricity which I find amazing and non believable that State & Federal government [except the GREENS PARTY] would make electricty price reductions illegal for OFF PEAK HOT WATER SERVICES. 

We pay a fortune in monthly electricity bills, so we are looking to swap over to any company who has a genuine competitive tariff for normal rates and an off peak rate. We are with TruEnergy at moment and they also blame AUSNET & the new SMART METERS they claim which I also find unbelievable, but anyone who knows the facts can correct me if im wrong. 

We were going to change to Momentum Energy from Tasmania Hydro [no carbon tax on hydro]who claimed it would be easy just by ringing AUSNET to have OFF PEAK recongnised on the meter billing system. Funny though Red Energy also Hydro Electricity generated claim costs have gone up on replacement equipment thats why there rates have gone up. Mommentum has been good for competition but some of their salesmen are inclined to tell porkys about how easy it is to get OFF PEAK for HWS just to get the new business and then AUSNET say no it's illegal. Who amoung your readers might know a better version of the truth?
