It really depends. For instance, if you do not want to prepay for electricity up front and are looking to get locked in at a low rate for the entire length of your 1-year rental lease, then a postpaid electricity plan is the best option for you. On the flip side, if you do not have good credit, cannot afford to pay for a deposit up front, and want flexibility on a month-to-month basis, then you should go with a prepaid electricity plan.
