Please be aware! I signed up for the first time and they applied a previous charge to my account based on my name and DOB. They have no other information that aligns with my personal information that I’m responsible. After speaking with a rep and supervisor you can hear other representatives laughing about the situation. I am reporting them to the BBB for falsely accusing me and reporting misleading information on my account. I am also disputing the payment I made. They are a joke and customer service is unprofessional.
Response: Hi Stephanie, Thank you for sharing your experience with us. I understand how concerning it can feel when a charge appears that you believe isn’t connected to your current account. After reviewing your situation, we found multiple points of association between your current account and a previous one, which is why the balance was transferred. To ensure this is handled correctly, we’ve arranged for a specialist to reach out to you shortly to review the details and confirm next steps. Our goal is to make sure your account reflects accurate information and that any questions you have are fully addressed. Published on November 25, 2025

Literally made payment 7hrs ago and still my services haven’t been restored. The reason for this particular review is to highlight, they send out false emails saying it will be reconnected with in 2 hrs and no reconnection. They don’t even have a line to where you can communicate with someone about their error. You literally have to wait til the open the next day. I nor my kids have eaten since I’ve gotten off work last night. I haven’t slept waiting for the lights to come back on. And here I am trying to contact someone since 3am. Emails don’t work, called on or and they said PAYLESS HASNT SENT A RECONNECTION ORDER. Why be quick to require payment but not quick to provide the service paid for. 0/5 stars…. I only choose 1 star because I had to choose someone

I just signed up for Payless power a week ago my bill is already $50 which means that it’s gonna be $200 a month. I’m paying over $.18 per kilowatt hour when the average of my area is $.13 per kilo hour. This is making me rethink to go with a different energy company instead.
You guys are horrible and I can’t wait to change company.

Unreliable. Use this company as a quick fix & switch as quick as possible. The rates are high, customer service sucks. The website glitches & won’t let me in to pay my bill. The automated system won’t let me pay with a new card. It literally said “it doesn’t understand me & to call back later and maybe she’ll understand” ?? I thought it was a joke. Trust me I’m fully capable to reset my password & my phone saves it instantly. It’s a glitch in the system for internet & phone. A response to another review said they have email hours during the weekend yet no response. Super unreliable company, I shouldn’t have been lazy & cheap & found a reliable one instead. Read their responses to poor reviews, they lack empathy & genuine interest in resolutions, they only aim to save face & have a condescending energy behind the responses.

I paid my bill on Saturday, I was still in the positive and they turned my power off and won’t turn it back on!!!!! It’s been almost10 hours!
Response: Hi Elizabeth, Thank you for reaching out and sharing your experience. We understand how frustrating it must be to have your power turned off, especially after making a payment and expecting everything to be resolved. It sounds like you took action promptly, and it’s completely reasonable to feel upset when things don’t go as expected. We want to make sure you have all the information you need to move forward. In situations like this, a reconnection can only be processed once the full minimum payment is made—including the negative balance plus an additional $20 to bring the account into a positive standing. If any part of that requirement wasn’t met, the reconnection order may not have been triggered. To get this resolved as quickly as possible, we encourage you to contact our Customer Care Team directly at 1-888-963-9363. They’ll be able to review your account in detail and help ensure everything is on track for reconnection. Published on October 15, 2025

While your message wasn’t detailed, the 1-star rating clearly signals that something went wrong, and we want to make it right. If you're open to it, I’d love the opportunity to learn more about what happened and work toward a resolution that feels fair to you. Please feel free to reach out directly at 1-888-963-9363 during standard business hours so we can address your concerns more personally. Published on September 29, 2025
