When selecting a power company, Texas residents may find it confusing to sort through the dozens of competitors to compare plans. Payless Power provides these comparisons to help you make an informed decision and compare our plans with some of the states other providers, including Reliant Energy. Reliant Energy, a subsidiary of Fortune 500 company NRG Energy, Inc., has been providing electricity to Texans for almost 20 years from their Houston headquarters. As one of the largest Texas electricity providers, Reliant Energy serves approximately 1.5 million homes and businesses across the state. Both Payless Power and Reliant Energy are top providers in Texas; we hope this comparison will help you make an informed choice as you select an affordable, reliable power company. RELIANT ENERGY RATES VS PAYLESS POWER RATES Reliant Energy offers a variety of prepaid and traditional prepaid power plans, ranging from month to month plans or those with 12, 24, or 36-month contracts. Reliants average energy rates are 13.76 centskWh, however that number can quickly go up as much as 2 to 3 cents per kilowatt hour if a customer uses less than 2,000 kWhmonth, like with the Reliant Clear Flex month-to-month plan. Reliant also offers plans with incentives such as free nights and weekends or free flex days for high-usage days every month. The Reliant Truly Free Flex Days 12 plan offers free pricing for the highest-usage days two days per week (or up to 8 days per month), but can discontinue the plan without any notice. And while these free days can seem like a great deal, consumers should take caution, as rates for these plans are typically one to two cents higher per kWh than the average advertised rates. That can add up substantially over time. By comparison, Payless Power offers prepaid plans with more transparent rates than the sometimes-confusing free promotional pricing. We offer several major plan options: Autopay and Save 12 – An auto pay plan with 12-month fixed rates Plans without auto pay that are 6-month (Simple 6) and 12-month fixed rates (called Premier 12) With our auto pay plans, customers can save up to 20% per kWh compared to regular rate plans. Additionally, the customer can pre-select an amount to automatically add when their account balance is low. This helps remove the stress of a missed payment while also controlling your budget and energy use. Reliants Secure Advantage 24 plan offers a fixed rate for medium to high-use customers, who are locked in for two years. While Payless Powers fixed-rate plans are only 12 months, giving consumers freedom to change plans if its not matching their power needs and budget. Additionally, most of Reliant Energys plans include a hefty early cancelation fee of $150 to $295 unless you provide change-of-address proof. By comparison, Payless Powers early termination fees are only $99.

PAYLESS POWER ADVANTAGES – WHY CHOOSING PAYLESS IS THE RIGHT CHOICE NO DEPOSIT, CREDIT CHECK, OR LONG-TERM CONTRACTS Reliant Energy requires customers to undergo a credit check, plus pay a deposit if the customer does not meet the credit standard. They only offer one monthly plan (Clear Flex), with their other 12-to-36-month plans carrying pricey fees for early cancellation. Payless Power, alternately, requires no credit check and no deposit from customers. With our instant approval, you wont have to wait for a lengthy process to switch your electricity to a Payless Power plan. Payless Power believes that everyone should have access to affordable electricity regardless of income or credit history, so we offer an easy process to sign up and stay on top of your bills.

With our notification process via text or email, customers can see when their account balance is low. They can either adjust power usage (by turning up the AC or turning off lights more deliberately) and save real money, or they can add to their balance on the spot or with auto pay. With pay-as-you-go electricity, the money you add to your account goes directly toward your electricity costs. Payless Power believes in clear pricing and saving customers money on their electricity bills. DAILY USAGE ALERTS Only want to spend a certain amount each month? Payless Power sends alerts when your account balance is low so you can either decrease your energy usage or prepay for more power?

With our personalized text or email alerts, you can monitor your daily usage, energy costs, and account balance. At the end of the month, we send a statement detailing your prior months payments, charges, and savings history.

HOW TO SWITCH FROM RELIANT ENERGY TO PAYLESS POWER If youre moving or simply want to switch providers in your current home, you can do so quickly and easily. Estimate your usage based on previous bills (the number of kWh per month). In Texas, apartments average about 600 kWh a month up to large homes using 2,400 kWh. Find the Payless Power plan in your zip code that fits your needs and your budget. Once your plan is decided, provide your address, name, and set up an account easily online or over the phone. Make your first Payless Power payment that goes toward the cost of your first bill. If youre moving, make sure your home has a smart meter for remote activation by the power company; most Texas homes do. Then inform your current provider of the move. Most companies will waive an early termination fee if proof of the move is provided. If youre switching electricity providers in your current residence, the new provider (in this case, Payless Power) will inform the previous provider of the switch. Set up same day connection. When possible, plan early in the day as the process can take 4-6 hours. Enjoy your day as you begin to start saving up to 20% on your energy bills!
