Turn it on please
Response: Hi Douglass, Thank you for sharing your concern. I understand how important it is to have your service restored quickly after making a payment. Once your payment is processed, we immediately send a reconnection order to the Transmission and Distribution Service Provider (TDSP). They complete these requests in the order they receive them, and while most reconnections happen within about two hours, it can take longer if the meter cannot be reconnected remotely. If your power is still off, please contact our Customer Care Team at 1-888-963-9363 during business hours (Monday–Friday, 9:00 AM–5:00 PM), and we’ll work with you to ensure everything is moving forward.

I moved in and needed electric ASAP. I was sleeping in the floor with two little kids throw blankets layered in like 5 layers of cold testing to keep warm. They had my light in Monday morning. I did have to sleep like that all weekend but since then I’ve had no problems. Should probably try to look towards opening a weekend line though.
Response: Hi Alyssa, Thank you for sharing your experience with us. Moving in and needing electricity right away can be stressful, especially with little ones and cold weather. It’s great to hear that once your service was connected, everything has been running smoothly. We appreciate your suggestion about weekend availability—it’s an important point. While we don’t currently have a weekend phone line, we do offer after-hours email assistance during extended times: Monday–Friday from 5:00 PM to 9:00 PM, Saturday from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, and Sunday from 11:00 AM to 8:00 PM.

I have been unable to log into my online account for 5 months…. It doesn’t accept my password. Every time I log on, forget worried, change the password. It says accepted. Then try to log in with the new pe and it says incorrect information. For 5 months!!!! I’m sick and tired of changing it and waiting 15 minutes to try again and still can’t log in. I can’t make payments on the phone with me cards because customer service closes before I can get off work. Can someone please rest my password so I can long online to pay… This is utterly ridiculous

This company sucks if you pay your bill on Saturday you will not be reconnected in they take your money like your lights or on it’s ridiculous especially if you have grandchildren for little kids in the winter……. I give them no Rate no Rate
Response: Hi Bridget, Thank you for sharing your concerns. I understand how important it is to have power restored quickly, especially when caring for grandchildren during colder weather. When a payment is made on Saturday, we immediately send the reconnection order to the Transmission and Distribution Service Provider (TDSP). From that point, the TDSP handles the physical reconnection, which typically happens within about two hours unless a technician needs to check the meter. To make sure everything moves smoothly, please reach out to our Customer Care Team at 1-888-963-9363 during standard business hours (Monday–Friday, 9:00 AM–5:00 PM).

I just signed up for Payless power a week ago my bill is already $50 which means that it’s gonna be $200 a month. I’m paying over $.18 per kilowatt hour when the average of my area is $.13 per kilo hour. This is making me rethink to go with a different energy company instead.
Response: Hi Derek, Thank you for sharing your concerns about your recent experience. I understand how seeing a higher-than-expected bill can make you question whether you’re getting the best value. It’s important to know that your rate is based on the actual kilowatt usage, and usage patterns can vary significantly from home to home. To help you get a clearer picture, you can compare our rates with other providers at powertochoose.org. For tracking and managing your energy consumption, registering for a free account at smartmetertexas.com is a great option—it breaks down your usage and provides tips to reduce costs. If you’d like to review your current plan or discuss ways to manage your bill, our Customer Care Team is available at 1-888-963-9363, Monday through Friday, 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM.
