We have plans to support you and your energy needs

I’m giving this rating because they turned off power for 2 dollars when it’s freezing. Now I have to pay for someone else bill definitely won’t let them stay in a freezing apartment. What a shame

Response: Thank you for your feedback on this matter, Monicqua. We understand that you have concerns about a disconnection of your services, and know that can be a stressful situation to deal with. If services were disconnected for having a balance below $0, then a payment must be made to the account to bring you balance to at least positive $20. With this amount, your services can be restored and you will have additional funds for future energy usage. If you have any other questions or concerns, please reach out to us at 1-888-963-9363 Published on February 19, 2025

I like the convenience of prepaid but I know that the kWh fluctuate toooooo much especially when I only have certain things plugged up, and I deliberately do not use certain appliances or lights. It’s unreasonable for me to fluctuate from 11 kWh to 80 something kWh. That’s way too wide of a range.

Response: Hello RaeAnne, thank you for contacting us about this issue. We understand that you have concerns with your recent billing and usage, especially regarding the price per kWh potentially fluctuating. The importance of understanding your billing cannot be overstated, and we want to make sure customers have clarity on their charges. You are currently enrolled in one of our 6-month prepaids. These plans have a fixed rate, therefore the rate that Payless Power charges per kWh is fixed, and does not change during the plan time period. Fluctuations in the actual kWh used may be attributed to a variety of factors, including the effects of the winter weather on appliances. You can always review your electricity consumption via the smartmetertexas.com website, which does break down your usage into 15-minute intervals. If you have any further inquiries, please contact us at 1-888-963-9363 Published on February 06, 2025

🙂 fast and easy processing

Response: Thank you for the feedback it's greatly appreicated! Published on February 01, 2025

I really don’t understand no matter the amount of kwh I use, I’m still paying on average $14 a day, & no one is home for 15hrs out of 24hrs.. So I’m paying well over $300 a month in a 2br apt.. I really would like to go back to the original meters due to this smart meter being full of bs.

Response: Thank you for your feedback about this matter, Derrick. We understand that you have concerns over your current usage and billing, and know that it's important to have a full understanding of your billing. Payless Power charges customers based on the amount of electricity they consume, which is read from your meter by your local Transmission and Distribution Provider. Customers can always use the smartmetertexas.com website for an in-depth view of their consumption, with each day of usage being broken down to 15-minute installments. If you have any further inquiries or concerns, please reach out to us at 1-888-963-9363 Published on February 05, 2025
