I’m cool for how it work in a time of crunch or hardship. But the inconsistence fluctuation of the kw price is annoying.

Response: Thank you for taking the time to leave us your feedback and review, Jonathan! We see you may have some concerns with your billing and charges, and know this can be a very important issue to cover. First, please keep in mind that the 6-month and 12-month plans we offer are fixed-rate plans. That means the price per KWH we charge will not change during the contract term. Payless Power charges its customers based on how much electricity they use. We always inform customers of the amount they used and were charged for with their daily billing notifications. If you have any other questions or concerns, please contact us at 1-888-963-9363 Published on February 25, 2025

Your electricity is a little high about $8.00 a day for a single person who is gone all day and heat set on 70 and ac on 79. Also, you charge more if I don’t make a $75.00 payment each time. That’s ridiculous. Will look for better options.

Response: Hello Leslie, and thank you for taking the time to contact us with your feedback and your concerns. We understand you may have some worries about your daily billing that you receive, and understand that you may be frustrated if you do not understand your billing. Payless Power bills it's customers based on the amount of electricity their home has consumed, and a higher usage amount leads to a higher billing price. Keep in mind, when using either your heating or AC units, that they should not be set on any automatic settings and should be manually tuned off, as they will run even if you are not home should you set these on an auto-setting. The weather affects how your appliances are used as well, with cold weather especially causing any kind of usage spike should you utilize your heater. Regardless of your appliances, customers can always review their home's consumption at the smartmetertexas.com website, as it will break down your usage into 15-minute intervals. Finally, we charge a $4.95 Payment Processing Fee for all payments below $75, with said fee being split into $0.99 installments across 5 days, as opposed to one lump sum. You can avoid this fee by paying the $75, or you have the option to enroll the card into automatic payments. If you have any further questions or concerns, you can reach out to us at 1-888-963-9363 Published on February 10, 2025
