It’s too high for services

Heartbreaking Experience with Payless Power – Felt Talked Down To During a Hard Time All I needed was a little help, but instead, I felt completely ignored and belittled. Since December, I’ve been trying to notify Payless Power of my situation and terminate my service. I emailed the company multiple times, but I never received any response. Then, when I noticed I was still being charged for electricity that I wasn’t using (since I haven’t even been in the apartment since December 28th), I called the company for answers. The phone call started off with me hoping to finally understand why I was still being charged, but things quickly took a turn for the worse. The representative I spoke with made me feel completely dumb.

It should be noted that you have been reached out to by our Customer Care Director with regards to your situation and we heavily encourage you reply back with any further questions or concerns.

You’re overcharging for usage not used. I literally use space two heaters. Use a stove to cook and use a microwave a few times a day. There’s no way I’m using 8-10.00 a day. I barely use lights in my house as in and do not use any other items like fridge dryer or washer so where is the charge is actually coming from ?

Your usage can be viewed via our usage insight graph via the My Account Portal, and an even deeper insight of your electricity consumption can be seen at smartmetertexas.com This website breaks down your daily usage into 15-minute intervals, so you can easily understand what times your usage may spike.

I put money on here every 3 days like really
Response: Hi Keonia. We appreciate taking the time to let us know what you think, and are more than happy to assist you. We understand your concerns about billing may have you feeling stressed, especially if you're making frequent payments. Since our services are prepaid, we bill our customers on a daily basis based on their consumption. If you find yourself frequently making payments to the account, we recommend instead to make larger payments that cover more time. We provide customers with an average daily use estimate, and while it may not be an exact number, it's a good way to get an idea of your usage.
