My light still hadn’t been turned on
Response: Hello Johnny. We are happy to help you out with your problem, especially since we know being without service is stressful. Looking at your case here, we were not able to start services because your local TDSP (Transmission and Distribution Provider) requires a permit from your city to proceed with the order to start service. You will have to reach out to your city to request a permit to proceed. Published on January 16, 2025
I usually have good service and no complaints but today I payed my bill and it shows my account balance in the positive but my electricity is still off and I have four kids at home and my youngest is only one and a half and she has an immune disease. I don’t have many friends or family around here and can’t afford a hotel room. So I don’t get why my electric is still off and has been for hours. There’s no power outages or anything
Response: Hello there, Misty, and thank you for contacting us with this important matter. It's understandable that being without service is worrying and stressful. In regards to your case, it seems that the payment you made to your account not sufficient to have your services restored. Please remember that in order to have your electricity restored, you must bring your account to a positive $20 balance at the minimum. You can check what your minimum required payment is via the My Account Portal or our automated system, and for any further assistance, feel free to contact 1-888-963-9363 Published on January 16, 2025
I feel like I’m paying more than I’m using I’ve paid over $90 this week alone and I don’t be at home and the rate steady seams to go up $8 a day that still doesn’t equal to what I should have on my usage
Response: Hello Levi, and thank you for your inquiry. We understand how important it is to track your usage and we know seeing an increase is a cause for concern. As the weather becomes cooler, customers may see an increase in their overall consumption of power. Other factors to consider are house insulation and water heater usage. Billing can be reviewed via the My Account Portal under your transactions tab, and smartmetertexas.com is an excellent resource for usage tracking. Published on January 16, 2025

Always there are mistakes and the customer service is barely effective. I spent almost 4-5hrs of my time explaining my problem with your billing and it still hasn’t been resolved.
Response: Hello Sumala, thank you for contacting us. We understand how frustrating it can be to not see a resolution to any billing issues you may be having, and will have a supervisor contacting you to assist further. Published on January 16, 2025
Y’all are full of ****! Yesterday I had 4 days and I wake up this morning with 1. Every time electricity goes out you all knock my days down to one this is ridiculous and you all are a JOKE!
Response: Hello Shawanda and thank you for contacting us today about your issue. We understand how a jump in your 'days remaining' can be a cause for concern, and will be happy to assist. We want to make it clear that how many days remain on your account is estimated and not at all an exact number, much like a gas gauge. It will change depending on any fees applied to the account and your usage, which is impacted by things like colder weather. Your billing and usage can all be reviewed on the My Account Portal, and you can reach out to us for further assistance at 1-888-963-9363 Published on January 16, 2025
I called several months ago about my bill. I am getting two bills still. I switched from Gexs to Payless Power and I am still getting two bills. One from Gexa and one from you guys. The representative, I spoke to said that she would put in a ticket to switch the service months ago. I am still paying the very high bill at gexa which is why I switched and paying your bill also. Can someone please fix this without impacting me too much?
Response: Hi ShuQuanda, we appreciate you for reaching out to us about this situation. We will have a supervisor reaching out to you with a call in regards to this issue. Published on January 16, 2025
