ReAmped Energy review: Our verdict
As far as plans go, ReAmped Energy is generally on the cheaper end of the price spectrum. Its power plans range from 29% less to 7% more than the reference price.
Keep in mind ReAmped doesn't sell gas plans, so you won't be able to bundle your utilities together.
Here are some of the benefits of signing up with ReAmped Energy:
You can send ReAmped a recent power bill via live chat or email and get a quick comparison on what you can save
Plans have very few complicated features compared to many other providers' market offers
Option to buy GreenPower to offset carbon emissions for an extra fee
$50 referral bonus for both parties when you refer a friend to sign up.
What's the catch?
The ReAmped Advance plan is billed fortnightly and only works with direct debit. You will be charged a set amount based on an estimate of your usage - actual usage will be adjusted for later
There is no over-the-phone customer support, which could be frustrating for some customers
Prices and available plans vary widely between states - you may not be able to get the cheapest overall price
Fortunately, ReAmped doesn't sell any plans with a lock-in contract, so you're able to change providers whenever you like.
Where is ReAmped Energy available?
ReAmped Energy is an independent energy provider that sells electricity plans in NSW, QLD, VIC, SA, and the ACT. At least some of its customer service team is based locally in Brisbane.

Solar Energy
Does ReAmped Energy offer solar plans?
ReAmped has dedicated solar plans available for residents of NSW, QLD, SA, and the ACT. These come with higher feed-in tariffs than the rest of its plans.
While solar customers may sign up to any plan they want, ReAmped Energy does not assist with or provide solar panel installation.
Watch out for: ReAmped's dedicated solar plans have high feed-in tariffs, but also have higher usage and supply rates. They might not be the best choice depending on your usage habits - as a solar customer, you can choose between a dedicated solar plan or any of ReAmped's other plans.
What feed-in tariffs can I expect?
ReAmped's feed-in tariffs are strong in NSW, QLD, SA, and the ACT on its dedicated solar plans, but fall by around 50% or more on its other plans. Also keep in mind Victorian residents do not have access to a dedicated solar plan.
NSW, ACT, SA: 9 c/kWh on the ReAmped Solar plan; 2-5c/kWh on the rest
VIC: 6.7c/kWh
QLD: 8 c/kWh on the ReAmped Solar plan; 2-5c/kWh on the rest
Green Energy
How green is ReAmped Energy?
Green Electricity Guide Rating: 3/5

Important notes: The estimated price we show by default is based on a single rate tariff. On your bill this might be known as a "peak tariff", "peak only" or an "anytime tariff". There are other tariff types available to customers and you may need to contact your provider if you are on these tariffs:
Single rate with a controlled load
Time of use
Time of use with a controlled load
The price estimate should not be used as an official quote, but an indication of what your costs may be on the plan. It varies based on whether you provide us with your bill details. You can learn more here.

Important information about this website
finder.com.au is one of Australia's leading comparison websites. We are committed to our readers and stands by our editorial principles
We try to take an open and transparent approach and provide a broad-based comparison service. However, you should be aware that while we are an independently owned service, our comparison service does not include all providers or all products available in the market.
Some product issuers may provide products or offer services through multiple brands, associated companies or different labeling arrangements. This can make it difficult for consumers to compare alternatives or identify the companies behind the products. However, we aim to provide information to enable consumers to understand these issues.
We make money by featuring products on our site. Compensation received from the providers featured on our site can influence which products we write about as well as where and how products appear on our page, but the order or placement of these products does not influence our assessment or opinions of them, nor is it an endorsement or recommendation for them.
Products marked as 'Top Pick', 'Promoted' or 'Advertisement' are prominently displayed either as a result of a commercial advertising arrangement or to highlight a particular product, provider or feature. Finder may receive remuneration from the Provider if you click on the related link, purchase or enquire about the product. Finder's decision to show a 'promoted' product is neither a recommendation that the product is appropriate for you nor an indication that the product is the best in its category. We encourage you to use the tools and information we provide to compare your options.
Where our site links to particular products or displays 'Go to site' buttons, we may receive a commission, referral fee or payment when you click on those buttons or apply for a product. You can learn more about how we make money.
When products are grouped in a table or list, the order in which they are initially sorted may be influenced by a range of factors including price, fees and discounts; commercial partnerships; product features; and brand popularity. We provide tools so you can sort and filter these lists to highlight features that matter to you.
Please note that the information published on our site should not be construed as personal advice and does not consider your personal needs and circumstances. While our site will provide you with factual information and general advice to help you make better decisions, it isn't a substitute for professional advice. You should consider whether the products or services featured on our site are appropriate for your needs. If you're unsure about anything, seek professional advice before you apply for any product or commit to any plan and read any disclosure documents (such as any Target Market Determination (TMD) and/or Product Disclosure Statement (PDS)) issued by the provider before making a decision.
Providing or obtaining an estimated insurance quote through us does not guarantee you can get the insurance. Acceptance by insurance companies is based on things like occupation, health and lifestyle. By providing you with the ability to apply for a credit card or loan, we are not guaranteeing that your application will be approved. Your application for credit products is subject to the Provider's terms and conditions as well as their application and lending criteria.
