Incompetent staff. They left my old account number with an old address on my profile so now I am paying the bills to an apartment that I don’t live at. They confirmed my new address several times. They need to work on how to use a computer and programs properly. I do like the daily usage email. They are cheap, but so far we aren’t having a pleasant experience. Not to mention the fees to do any little thing on the account.
Response: Mr. Hamilton- I was able to review your records and based on your comments, it appears that enrolled for a new account but never moved in the residence. Still the account was active on the day you requested, and some small amounts of power was used there during the 4 days your account was active. There is also a daily customer fee that is applied each dan an account is open. However, we canceled the first account , waived the early termination fee and transferred your remaining balance to a subsequent account you created at the alternate address you ended up moving in to . If you have any questions or feel that your account was handled incorrectly. Please call us at 888 963 9363 to request a written supervisory review. Published on December 15, 2023
I can’t afford it and I’m going to have no power tomorrow
Response: Mr. Bradford- Your review states that you cannot afford to pay your charges. That is a very stressful situation and would cause an extreme amount of stress for anyone in such a position. As a pre-paid provider, Payless Power does have options for customers who find themselves in a tough spot. One is a same day account protection. We offer this when a customer’s balance falls below $0.00 . Please note that once used, it cannot be used again until the account balance is brought to a positive state. We also offer deferred payment plans with easy terms and instant approval. If you have one of these you may not add another unless you accrued a large balance coming out of a heat moratorium. You may apply for either of these options via the automated phone system or your customer portal. If these internal options are exhausted, we suggest that you contact 211 on your wireless phone for a list of utility assistance agencies in your area. Companies that offer payday loan services like Ace Cash Express are also a potential solution for immediate assistance. Published on September 29, 2023

Kwh cost is way too high..
Response: LaShonna- Your comments show that you are unhappy with your KWH rate. This is understandable this time of year when the Texas heat has been so relentless. Our rates are actually very competitive with all major competitors and please keep in mind that our rates are bundled… meaning that the Centerpoint delivery charges are incorporated into your rate and not separated to make your cost look cheaper than it really is. This is a common tactic with Electric providers but our plans are a little more straight forward. Log on to your Payless Power account portal for a breakdown of your daily usage, charges and the correlations between temperature and cost. 888 963 9363 Published on August 22, 2023
This company doesn’t mean any good I’ve been with them for months and for months my kids and I have suffered due to disconnections after overly paying time after time I have filed to the courts on this matter it’s rediculous and disheartening. The free nights from 9pm to 6am is a damn scam they will have you behind payments every week. Do NOT go here for electricity you will be sorry like me.
Response: Ms Huff- To recap you are stating that you feel that you have been overcharged and you feel that free nights and weekends are a scam. We do see that you have been with us since the spring and that you enrolled online . You are currently in good standing as a customer. There must be some confusion regarding free nights a weekends because Payless Power does not offer and has never offered that promotion. If you log into your MyAccount Customer Portal and review “My Documents” the Electricity Facts label will outline the terms of your plan. 888 963 9363 Published on July 31, 2023
Hi Payless Power Team, Hope you are doing well! I had requested to close my account on 5th July however I could see some charges even beyond that date which led my account balance to be negative. Please wave off those charges and close my account if not already done. I have emailed proofs to your customer support email (customerservice@paylesspower.com) for your reference on 13 July 2023. Please correct this issue and remove any dues showing up on my account. Best, Harsh
Response: Hello Harsh- Thank you for your inquiry. Please note that Payless Power bills 2 days in arrears. The last charges that you received consist of the billed usage from the last full day prior to your move-out date as well as any reconciled charges from your final meter read. Please visit your Payless Power My Account Portal for an itemized breakdown or call us at 888-963-9363 with any questions and to settle the final balance due. Published on July 31, 2023
You are too expensive and I want to drop your service and go elsewhere
Response: Hello- To recap you comments, you feel that your rates are too expensive and you want to switch. That is understandable and I have good new for you. You are approaching the end of your contract and will receive a renewal off at the end of this moth with rates that will be considerably cheaper than last year’s. Please look for your renewal offer at the end of this month. 888 963 9363 Published on July 10, 2023
