It’s too high for services
Response: Hello Lasonya, thanks for taking your time to contact us about this! We know that having a high billing may be stressful, and we would be more than happy to help you. The best way to decrease the billing you receive is to lower your overall usage, as our billing is based on electricity consumed. We know as the weather gets colder, customers may see a spike, especially if your household uses the heater. If you want to track your usage, we have the Usage Insight graph to do sp. You can also access smartmetertexas.com for 15-minute interval breakdowns of your consumption to better understand when you use the most energy.

too expensive. charges $4.95 fee terrible
Response: Thanks for contacting us Marcello! We understand that you may have some concerns with your billing and the Payment Processing Fee. While a $4.95 fee is applied to the account when you make a payment below $75, it should be noted that this fee is amortized into 5 daily installments of $0.99 per installment. Along with making payments of $75 or more, you can also enroll a card into AutoPay to avoid this fee. If you need further assistance, please call us at 1-888-963-9363 Published on January 16, 2025
Should make it easier to make partial payments to one account, i mean yall are a prepaid service so understably so people do at times have to get funds from more than one debit card. Thanks for consideration
Response: Hello Loni, and thank you for contacting us about this. We understand making split payments may be necessary and we would be happy to assist you with making them.

I became a customer in November of 2024. I thought that everything is going to be alright. It was ok until it was time to make another payment. That’s where surprises happens. I made my first payment a few weeks later. I check my account everyday and I noticed that I have been getting off scene charges. I called and talked to an agent who told me what the charges are for. I never heard of recurring charges being deducted for reconnect fees for a 10 day period. I thought you pay the balance of the bill to get a reconnection. But not here. They take it out the payment you made after paying the balance. So you’re making two payments for the reconnect fee. I am currently drained out of funds because of some rule. And I’m on a fixed income. I am in looking for another solution to get this problem solved Or make other options to get help
Response: Hello Sherhonda, We appreciate you for contacting us about your concerns, especially regarding the reconnection fee and how that is paid out. When customers make a payment to reconnect their services after being disconnected for non-payment, a $30 reconnection fee is applied to the account. This fee is amortized in 10 daily installments, with each installment being a $3.00 charge. We highly recommend that our customers make payments onto their accounts that will help maintain a positive balance and prevent future disconnections in the future. Published on January 16, 2025
Prices could be cheaper and it shouldn’t be a fee to add money
Response: Hello Debra, thanks for reaching out to us about your concerns. While we understand that you may be unsatisfied with the Payment Processing Fee, we would be happy to inform that payments of $75 or more do not have the fee applied to them. Furthermore, the fee can be avoided by enrolling a card into AutoPay, which can be done via the My Account portal.
