Why Use SlashPlan To Compare Electricity Rates in Hempstead?

Many consumers don’t know that the power to choose energy is in their own hands. We can’t blame them though, many new residents are moving to Texas from regulated energy markets.

Electricity companies 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:

Assuming you narrowed down your search to 2 energy companies (Company A & Company B) that both advertise a price of 10¢ per Kilowatt Hour (kWh). Your first thought may be: “they offer the same price”. But no, they don’t!

Most of the prices that are advertised by the energy companies are Tiered Prices.

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.

Now, let’s repeat the question. Who offers the cheaper price?

The answer to that is — it depends!

Your bill price will be determined by various parameters such as monthly usage, base charges, usage credits, discounts, time of usage, and more…

Calculating how much you’re ACTUALLY going to pay is impossible without taking all these parameters into account.

That’s where SlashPlan is here for you!

Our comparison page will show you plans from different electric companies in a standardized way that is easy to compare and understand. We include all the fees and discounts, so you can compare apples-to-apples.

For you to know you’re making the best decision, you need to have all the details in front of your eyes. Including all fees, discounts, and plan terms.

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.

To make sure you are not misled by the energy companies, we display all-inclusive prices on our platform. We include all the credits and discounts you will be getting based on your exact usage. Oftentimes, the rates that are advertised online are associated with the highest usage levels, which are usually the lowest. Don’t let these rates fool you. Most households do not reach the usage levels that are needed in order to qualify for these low rates.

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 provide you with all the info that you need in order to make the best purchasing decision. We only show rates from well-respected and reputable energy companies that you can rely on.

How To Find A Reliable Electricity Company in Hempstead?

It’s important to understand that when you sign up for service, your are enrolling with a Retail Electric Provider. Your provider is not in charge of servicing and maintaining your energy infrastructure, and they are not the ones that will fix blackouts or outages. Maintenance is done by a seprate utility company, also called a “TDSP”.

Sounds odd, right?

To keep the energy prices low and eliminate monopolies deregulated markets don’t allow utility companies (aka TDU / TDSP) to sell electricity directly to the end user.

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.

Why should I care about this anyway?

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 are the differences between all the other energy companies?

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 provider’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 deal, and will sign up with a reputable energy company that has a proven track record of competitive prices and superb customer support.

What Do I Need In Order To Sign Up?

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

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

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!

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

This normally is the information an electric provider will require you to provide:

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 – Each service address in Texas has a unique meter number, also known as an ESID. When you enroll online we will find your ESID number based on your address. If you enroll over the phone, you can also find this number in your previous electric bill.
