Greetings, It seems to me that the base of usage is determined by the weather. I was out of town my thermostat was set on 71 the entire time. Why is that? I drove to Arizona left on Friday returned Monday morning. I would like my smart meter checked to make sure its working properly? I’m going to start keeping up with the meter numbers as well to compare. This is extremely too high I’m on a fixed income. I know that’s not your business and you don’t care. God Bless.

Response: Thank you for taking the time to reach out to us about this matter, Tamara. Payless Power understands you have concerns with regards to your recent billing and usage, and know that this is vital to understand. Payless Power bills its customers based on the amount of electricity their home consumed. If you keep a heater on at the same temperature while you are away from home, that will consume quite a bit of electricity. This is especially true for periods of winter weather, as a heater at 71 degrees will have to work almost non-stop to heat a house while its down to single digits, as opposed to it being 50 degrees. You can always review your usage and consumption via the smartmetertexas.com website, which will break your home usage down into 15-minute intervals. If you have any further questions or concerns, feel free to reach out to us at 1-888-963-9363 Published on February 19, 2025

Prepaid services are a scam. Daily pay is outrageous. But I guess, didn’t know it’d be like this definitely changing providers

Response: Thank you for taking the time to reach out to us about this concern, Treyvion. We understand that you may have concerns about your recent billing and can understand why you may be frustrated with these charges. Prepaid services means that customers will be billed on a daily basis, with each billing charging you for the amount of electricity your home had consumed two days prior. It is up to customers to keep their balance above $0 to avoid a disconnection. What we recommend to customers when it comes to making payments to your account, is to add a large lump sum to your balance to cover your account balance for an extended period of time. You can review an average daily usage amount (based on your 4 most recent days of usage) via the My Account Portal at paylesspower.com This average is to help give customers an estimate of how much they consume on a daily basis. If you have any further questions in regards to your billing or the services overall, please reach out to us at 1-888-963-9363 Published on February 18, 2025
You guys didn’t set up my electricity correctly and now I’ve been up all night, missed work trying to fix this and you’ve been worse than no help. I’m already exhausted from moving and now I’ve lost all my groceries because of you. I will most likely cancel my service and seek another company.
