    Why Use SlashPlan To Compare Electricity Rates in Harlingen?

    Who you should compare electricity rates

    We tend to get used to the “status quo”. We are busy and have other important things to do during our day. Most people simply think of their energy plan as a “set and forget” plan, which is a dangerous thing to do!

    Electricity suppliers are there to make a profit, and they will use different methods to charge you more. They use difficult-to-understand pricing tiers and terminology that is now known to the average consumer.

    It’s extremely difficult and time-consuming to find the absolute best price without using a sophisticated comparison service like SlashPlan has to offer.

    Here’s a common scenario that we see all the time:

    2 energy companies (Company A & Company B) both charge 10¢ per Kilowatt Hour (kWh). You might think that since both companies offer the same price, your bill would be the same. But it wouldn’t!

    A standard practice in the energy industry is to offer Tiered Pricing. So you will only pay the advertised rate if your monthly usage falls under that specific tier. If we look back at our case, here’s what we mean:

    Company A offers the advertised rate when your monthly usage is ABOVE 2000 kWh.

    Company B offers this price when your monthly usage is UNDER 1000 kWh.

    So if we go back now and ask the same question. Which company offers a better rate? The truth is, you can’t determine that without looking at a few other parameters… It depends on your monthly usage, and multiple other factors, such as monthly base charges, usage credits, discounts, time of usage, etc… Calculating how much you’re ACTUALLY going to pay is impossible without taking all these parameters into account.

    That’s where SlashPlan comes in to help!

    SlashPlan takes the guesswork out of finding the cheapest energy plan

    We show you the actual, all-inclusive prices that you can expect to pay on your bill. No hidden charges or surprises!

    The best way to shop for electricity is to see all your options in one place, where all the fees and discounts are already included in the final price.

    We’ve put all this information at your figure tips.

    On our comparison page, you can sort, filter, and shop by price at YOUR specific usage level.

    The rates we display on SlashPlan are the rates you’ll actually experience on your bill, inclusive of all hidden fees. We make sure that you’re not misled by the cheaper rates often advertised by electric providers… those advertised rates are associated with higher usage levels that many households never enjoy because their usage level never reaches that pricing tier.

    SlashPlan has your best interest in our heart, and when shopping for energy, we are loyal to you. We act on your behalf to level the playing field and let the electric providers fight and compete to earn your business.

    We’ll provide you with all the necessary details, showing you the best deals from the most respected, reputable providers in your area offering the best rates, terms, and customer satisfaction.

    Even if you aren’t moving, you can save hundreds of dollars a year by switching providers. If you’re not locked into a contract with your energy provider you are likely overpaying.

    Average Household Electricity Rates in Harlingen, Texas

    The price of energy in Texas is changing all the time. Between 2001-2020, Texans have been paying 11.1¢ kWh (Kilowatt/Hour) on average for their electricity. Since Retail Electric Prices are constantly fluctuating, it’s difficult to tell if the plan you’re currently enrolled in is offering you a good deal. The rates that you manually worked hard to compile may not be relevant by the time you sign-up. The energy company that gave you the best deal last year may no longer offer the best prices.

    Stop wasting time and overpaying for electricity

    With SlashPlan you can compare and instantly get up-to-date unbiased energy rates, pre-sorted with the lowest prices showing first.

    How To Find A Reliable Electricity Company in Harlingen?

    You may not be aware but in a deregulated energy state like Texas, the energy company that is selling you the electricity is NOT in charge of maintaining the power infrastructure or handling outages. Instead, a different utility company, known as a “TDSP” is in charge of doing that.

    That’s confusing, right?

    In order for energy prices to stay low and competitive, law-makers in Texas decided to eliminate monopolies by not allowing the TDSP’s to sell energy directly to the end-users.

    So the Retail Providers sell you the electricity, but the TDSP’s are the ones delivering that electricity to your home or business, and maintaining the infrastructure, such as power lines and poles.

    For any issues with blackouts, power outages, or the electric meter, you will need to contact the utility company directly.

    There are 5 main utility companies in Texas. Determine which utility company services your area.

    What does this mean for us, the retail consumers?

    This means that the electricity that you receive to your home or business is literally all the same. Regardless of which company sells it to you. There is only 1 utility company that services your address, and they are the only company that delivers electricity to you.

    So what’s the difference between all the other energy providers?

    They all have different structured plans and prices.

    Certain providers may only offer Green Energy Plans, while others may offer No-Deposit, or Short Term Month-To-Month plans.

    Therefore, if you are comparing plans from different providers, as long as their prices are the same, you should focus more on the supplier’s customer service and early termination policy.

    When you sign up for a new plan using SlashPlan, you can be confident that you’re getting a great bargain, and will sign up with a reputable energy company that has a proven track record of competitive prices and superb customer support.

    What Information Do I Need To Provide When Signing-Up?

    It’s important to remember that SlashPlan is not your electricity provider. We created a platform that allows you to quickly compare and sign-up (or switch) your electricity service.

    When you sign up for a new plan, your new provider requires us to send them some of the enrollment data.

    We do not store sensitive information on our servers and make sure to protect your private data. We will never sell or share it with anyone!

    Although most people prefer a streamlined online enrollment, if you feel uncomfortable submitting your information online you can also enroll over the phone.

    • Full Name
    • Service Address
    • Billing Address
    • Social Security Number or Driver’s License Number (to determine if a deposit is required)
    • Requested service start date
    • Meter Number – The number printed on your Electric Meter. It can also be found on your recent electricity bill.
