I’ve been with payless power for about 10 years. Recently the company change the policy and on the 13 of May notify me via Email….. I don’t check email frequently and since I have the text service daily I was expecting to receive a notification there as well, but they only sent the text message informing the new policy on May 27….and the new change being effective on the first day of June, not enough time for us to have another plan…. I called customer service yesterday and didn’t have any help… so I decide to leave the company….
Response: Izabel- Thank you for being a loyal customer. we did send out the new Terms of service on the 13th, it states the new minimum payment is $75, we are not currently charging this amount. We are charging $40 as the minimum. Your comments state that you are unhappy with the new changes. This is understandable but the changes are necessary for us to be able to keep our rates among the lowest available in Texas. We do have options to help you get to a point where you can make larger payments instead of multiple smaller payments. A supervisor will contact you today to discuss. 888 963 9363.

I have been a customer for about 6-7 months now. In the beginning the service was fine. But now that the company has implemented, bc of “higher costs”, that you have to put on your account at least $75 or they will deduct $9.95 from your payment I am having a difficult time paying for my electricity. I am disabled and on a fixed income. This makes no sense to me. I would certainly Not recommend this company if you are on a fixed income. People may say “Choose a different company”. I can’t afford the outrageous deposits most of the other companies make you pay. Smh
Response: You described how difficult it is for you to make larger payments when you have to scape by to make cash payments to cover the negative balance . This is clearly a very difficult situation for you and anyone would be concerned or upset. We do have some potential options to assist you so that you can get to the point so that you can make larger payments . You can also enroll in autopay and this would allow you to post $40 payments without the fee. A supervisor will call you to discuss. 888 963 9363 Published on June 14, 2022
Would NOT recommend! Not only do they charge me $13+ A DAY for some TV and AIR CONDITIONING because of course lights only get used from 8pm-11 or 12 when we sleep but now they are FORCING you to pay money you might NOT even have to be able to LIVE with ELECTRICITY!! They SAY $9.95 fee for anything under $75 ($75 that’s only gonna last for 4days anyways) but STILL gives you a minimum payment so you DO NOT get to make your own payment and just add $9.95 that’s a LIE! WOULD NOT RECOMMEND! I had a positive balance of 40$ and woke up the next day with a positive balance of $17.12!!!!! Ain’t enough electric in ONE APARTMENT to use $22 in a day!! And that’s NOT the FIRST SECOND OR THIRD time they have taken all that money! Haven’t liked them since the SECOND day I used them!! WOULD NOT RECOMMEND!!! JUST READ WAYYYY MORE BAD REVIEWS THAN GOOD IS A RED FLAG!!! Would NOT recommend!!!!

I LOVED this company….. until June 1st……. I remember being soooooo thankful and grateful when I could go into our local check cashing store and pay the negative balance and still have out lights on…..and some of these days I’d laugh with the teller as I’m counting out coins to make it by the penny with a smile because where else can you do that!!! Now the minimum is 40$. Went in to pay the 29 something I was negating with my LAST 40$ and my balance is now 0.76cents. So that 9.95$ includes store payments not just online payments. Usually that 40 wouldve paid the negative balance and gave me at least 2 days. Honestly, If I wasn’t locked in this switch hold due to a payment plan I probably would have switched companies by now. Times are too hard for low income families, I’m already struggling to feed our 5 children to have to come up with extra money for avoidable fees. And paying 75$ is hard to do when you’re already scraping up change to get the minimum 40 now. Hate to say it payless power, but I used to actually RECOMMEND you guys as a good company to people, that may change. I also pray someone will take these comments to heart, and consider some kind of change because it seems like the majority of your recent reviews are expressing the same sentiments. Sincerely, Just another customer.

Worst company ever. They are constantly raising prices daily. I will never recommend this company to anyone!!! $10 average cost for electricity when I’m barely home is outrageous!
