P202600925	2/27/2026 11:07 AM	I contacted Evergy and was refused service because they said my social security number was off by a digit. Spoke with a supervisor who validated that I had an account with my correct social and somehow this mix up occurred. She was supposed to review and call me back. Never received a call back and when I called back the supervisor said there were no notes on the account. I spoke with a supervisor and she was disrespectful and dismissive. The error was corrected I just can’t believe they are so inconsiderate and when you ask to file a complaint they become passive and act Like the issue has been resolved.

It should be implementing lots of renewables, solar, wind and batteries. By doing so, it would save millions of dollars. In 2025, global renewables saved $600 billion. The commission should insist that Evergy follow this route followed by many other utilities to save money. Cumulatively, there is a 266 GW of solar in the US. In 2026, predictions are 86 GW more renewables, a 60% increase from 2025: Solar 55%; Batteries 30%; Wind 15%. All the new energy in the US in 2026 will be renewables. Evergy uses 16 GW. If they convert half of that to renewables, they would need no rate increase for years.

I am sending this complaint due to the lack of contact or customer service at 3pm on Tuesday 5/19/26. I have called at 9am this morning as well 2:30pm this afternoon for updates on when the electricity will be restored. I am being told no one knows anything or any update they can give. This is seriously obsurd excuse for customer service. I have 3 fridges/freezers full of food that I have now lost. Costing me in the area of 400.00. And no one there can help with finding out when a crew maybe in the area to restore service. They should reimburse our loss, no excuses.

P202601250	6/23/2026 1:49 PM	I am against the new price hike that is being instituted via Evergy.
P202601251	6/23/2026 1:51 PM	Just got a notification that Evergy is planning to raise their rates yet again and how they can do it up to 2x pay year. Our paychecks do NOT go up 2x pay year, and as it is now all other utilities have gone up, gas has gone up, food has gone up. We do not have the extra money to cushion Evergy’s pocket. Either they make do with what they have like the rest of the citizens, or the BOD will need to take a cut on their bonus. This monopoly that has us all at the mercy of their price hiking will is atrocious. Almost $20 extra bucks per month! No, their CEOs can forgo their 8th boat and connect instead to the reality of their customers.
P202601253	6/24/2026 9:02 AM	Please stop. I can barely afford my utilities as it is, and I see that your stock is performing plenty fine.
P202601259	6/24/2026 4:00 PM	Evergy earned $855.6 Million in GAAP profit in 2025 and wants $140.4 Million more from 310,000 Missouri Metro customers. That's not a struggling utility closing a budget gap, that's a monopoly using captive ratepayers to pad already record earnings. You cannot opt out. You cannot switch providers. The PSC is the only check on that power. Deny this request.
P202601262	6/25/2026 8:22 AM	Please don’t allow for Evergy to raise prices on their customers.
P202601263	6/25/2026 8:28 AM	These rate increases have got to stop! You are killing the people you are meant to be serving. I have been doing everything I can to decrease my usage yet my bill continues to go up because of these rate increases. Enough is enough. You are providing a public service; act like it.
P202700034	7/2/2026 3:07 PM	At a time when consumers are facing broad price increases for everything, Evergy should not be raising electricity rates. I also strongly object to vast resources being used by AI data centers, and I do not want my home rates to go up simply to fund these environmental disasters.
