We have plans to support you and your energy needs
Easy to use. But I’m having trouble seeing where I can choose my plan. I see plan choices, but when I click on them, nothing happens.
Response: Hi Charla, Thank you for sharing your experience with us. It sounds like you’re finding the platform easy to use overall, which is great to hear, but I understand how frustrating it can be when the plan selection isn’t working as expected. I appreciate you pointing this out—it helps us ensure everything runs smoothly. To get this resolved quickly, our Customer Care Team is ready to assist you with selecting your plan. You can reach them at 1-888-963-9363 during standard business hours, Monday through Friday, 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM. They’ll walk you through the steps and make sure your plan is set up without any issues. Published on January 05, 2026

I really like the convenience of the pay as you go. It makes it easier for me to pay my bill instead of having one huge bill. I really like Payless power! It’s convenient and it helps to know how much electricity I am consuming everyday.
Response: Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We’re thrilled to hear that our pay-as-you-go plan makes things easier for you and helps you stay on top of your energy usage. Convenience and transparency are exactly what we aim to provide, so it’s great to know it’s working for you. We truly appreciate your support and look forward to continuing to serve you!

I moved in and needed electric ASAP. I was sleeping in the floor with two little kids throw blankets layered in like 5 layers of cold testing to keep warm. They had my light in Monday morning. I did have to sleep like that all weekend but since then I’ve had no problems. Should probably try to look towards opening a weekend line though.
Response: Hi Alyssa, Thank you for sharing your experience with us. Moving in and needing electricity right away can be stressful, especially with little ones and cold weather. It’s great to hear that once your service was connected, everything has been running smoothly. We appreciate your suggestion about weekend availability—it’s an important point. While we don’t currently have a weekend phone line, we do offer after-hours email assistance during extended times: Monday–Friday from 5:00 PM to 9:00 PM, Saturday from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, and Sunday from 11:00 AM to 8:00 PM. You can reach us anytime through our contact page https://paylesspower.com/contact-us/, and our team monitors those messages closely to help as quickly as possible. Published on December 17, 2025
A good company, easy to make payments.
Response: Hi Sanjuanita, Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us! It’s great to hear that you find our company reliable and that making payments has been easy for you. We truly value feedback like yours because it helps us understand what’s working well for our customers. Published on December 16, 2025
When will my lights be turned on
Response: Hi Johnathon, I understand how important it is for you to know when your lights will be turned on. Starting new service typically takes about 4–6 hours for the Transmission and Distribution Service Provider to complete the process. If this is a reconnection for an already established service, it’s usually done within 2 hours. To make sure everything moves as quickly as possible, you can confirm that your account setup is complete and there are no pending requirements. If everything is in order, your service should be activated within the expected timeframe. Please don't hesitate to reach out to our Customer Care Team at 1-888-963-9363 during standard business hours which are Monday through Friday 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM. Published on December 01, 2025

Fairly Straightforward and simple to fill out registration. I really need a longer term contract at this rate or lower but I’ll take the 3 mo if that’s all available for now. Thank you.
Response: Hi Rosemary, Thank you for sharing your thoughts! It’s great to hear that you found the registration process straightforward and simple — we always aim to make things as smooth as possible. We understand how important it is to find a contract option that fits your needs, especially when it comes to long-term value. You’re not alone in wanting more flexibility at a preferred rate, and we appreciate you bringing that up. We do offer longer-term contracts — including 6- and 12-month options — that may align better with what you’re looking for. To explore these plans and see what might work best for you, please give our Customer Care Team a call at 1-888-963-9363 during standard business hours (Monday through Friday, 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM). They’ll be happy to walk you through the available options. Published on October 27, 2025
