We have plans to support you and your energy needs

I’ve been using this prepaid electricity service for a while now, and overall, it’s been a great experience. The convenience of monitoring my usage and recharging when needed has made budgeting so much easier. I appreciate the flexibility it offers and how simple it is to stay in control of my energy costs. The only thing I’d suggest is improving customer service response times, as it can take a bit longer than expected to get assistance when needed. That said, the service itself works reliably, and I’d recommend it to anyone looking for an efficient prepaid option!

Response: Hello Erica, and thank you for your feedback and your patronage. We are thrilled to hear that you are satisfied with your services overall, and glad that we can help you keep track of your usage for your budgeting. If you are needing a faster response, you can speak with a live representative when you contact 1-888-963-9363 Published on January 16, 2025

Response: Hello Laquita, your feedback is appreciated, as well as your time with Payless Power. We know customers may need some assistance with their billing when they find themselves without funds, and we are always happy to assist our customers with the options that each customer equally has available. You can call our automated system or check the Payless Power My Account Portal to see if you qualify. If those options are used, then it is the customer's responsibility to make sure there are sufficient funds on their account to avoid any service interruption. 888-963-9363.

The fees that increase when you make a payment of less than 100 cause the amount to go up everytime I was paying 4to 5 a day now it’s 8to 9 but only when I pay less than 100 at a time

Response: Hello Jamie and thank you for sharing your concerns with us. We have a Payment Processing Fee of $4.95 for any payments below $75, but these fees can be waived by enrolling in autopay! For further assistance, please contact 1-888-963-9363. Published on January 16, 2025

Service fee is for under $75 payments is pretty high for those that can not make payments of that amount

Response: Hi Jeromy. We understand that some customers may not be able to make $75 or above payments, and we do waive the Payment Processing Fee if you set up a card for automatic payments via your My Account Portal or via a live representative at 1-888-963-9363.  Published on January 16, 2025

This company is a Rip off! It’s very expensive and they do not care about their customers. I know some of these reviews have to come from staff or people that have never dealt with other electricity companies before. I would give -0 rates because that’s what they deserve -0.

Response: Thank you for reaching out about this, Xavier. I know that having expensive billing can be a stressor, and we want to show that we do in fact care about our customers, and that the reviews left behind are from real customers. If your billing is of concern, please reach out for assistance from one of our live representatives at 1-888-963-9363  Published on January 16, 2025

Rates are too high

Response: Hello Dawn, and thank you for contacting us in regards to this matter. We would be happy to help go over your current rates at 1-888-963-9363 Published on January 16, 2025

This company sucks then they put a meter hold on to **** you over more i do not recommend this company to even my worst enemy

Response: Hi Juan, and thank you for contacting us. Your comments state that you are upset because a switch-hold is in place on your account. Please note that a switch-hold can only be placed on an account if the customer requests and accepts a deferred payment plan. A deferred payment plan or DPP, allows customers with a past due balance to repay it in manageable installments instead of having to pay the full amount to reconnect service.  It will then be released upon the repayment of the deferred balance. A deferred payment plan can also be paid off early and Payless Power will never charge a penalty for doing so.   If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to contact us at 1-888-963-9363 Published on January 16, 2025

Way to expensive, it’s great babying electricity. The price is ridiculous though.

Response: Hello Ryleigh, we appreciate the feedback. We understand how vital it is to keep track of how much electricity you consume and are glad you find this aspect helpful. In regards to your cost and billing, please feel free to contact us at 1-888-963-9363 Published on January 16, 2025
