I rate this a zero not even a one star!!!! I’ve been with this company for about 6 months and they charge me sooo much light daily! It’s ridiculous! It’s literally only me living by myself in my little apartment!!! I don’t even have a Tv or electronics that take up that much energy! I switched to this company because I heard it was really great service and cheap! But I’ve seen otherwise!! ????????????????????????
Response: Ms Lopez. You comments state that you thought that Payless Power was supposed to be cheap but you have seen otherwise. You live by yourself in a small apartment and don’t use a lot of electronics and things that consume a lot of electricity. You switched to Payless because you heard our service was inexpensive but This has not been your experience. Its not good when you feel that you aren’t getting the proper value for your money. Let me say that as a below average usage customer your concerns are understandable. Our plans in your area carry a $2.67 daily customer fee. This fee includes up to your first 17KWH of power at no additional charge. That comes out to be up 510 KWH included at no additional charge. If a customer exceeds 17 KWH on a day this usage is billed at their low per KWH rate so the more you use the more you save. After reviewing your daily usage I can see that you use a little over the 510 KWH threshold monthly so on some days your usage is under 17KW and some days it goes over. This week will be an outlier as it looks like your usage was way up due to the record setting freezing temperatures. But after things go back to normal and mild spring weather returns, is this the best value for you? The answer is “maybe.” If you shop around and can find a provider that will only charge the flat per KWH fee then that might benefit however here are some things to consider. Payless Power does not charge a minimum usage fee. We also do not charge late fees, assistance fees to call our Customer Care department, minimum payment fees, fees to load funds, fees to pay over the phone , disconnection or reconnection fees. These are all commonplace throughout the industry and many competitors charge these and others to make up for lower advertised rates. It’s like booking a ticket on an airline that’s $100 cheaper than the more well known airline that extensively serves the “southwest” ; only to find out at the airport that they are going to charge you $50 each way to carry on a bag. Their flight was cheaper but they made it up from you in other ways. We are like the well known airline serving the southwest. We don’t nickel and dime our customers with annoying fees and gimmicks that make it seem like you’re getting a better value. Even so, I would encourage you to look around on www.powertochoose.org Published on February 19, 2021
I Wish I could give it 0 stars. They are extremely high. You have to add money every other day. It’s ridiculous.
Response: Ms Semien- Your review comments state that Payless Power is extremely high and you have to add money every other day. If given the chance you would give a ) star rating. Having to spend money on your electricity when you were not expecting to is not a good thing . Especially if you had that money allotted for something else. This week has really emphasized the cost of electricity. Let me reassure you that your rates have not been raised however your usage has gone up significantly over the last 3 months and even higher this week with he onset of record breaking temperatures. However by looking at your invoice received yesterday I can see why you are upset. A portion of this seems to be an estimate generated by Centerpoint due the local outages. Please note that in such cases an audit of your account will be done as soon as we receive Centerpoint’s monthly meter read and any adjustments due on your account will be done automatically. If you will like more information on approximately when that will occur please call us at 888 963 9363. Published on February 19, 2021
