Why 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!

Like any other service provider, electricity companies always try to charge you as much as they can, and they use different tactics to make it happen, all while telling you that you’re getting a “deal”.

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). Your first thought may be: “they offer the same price”. But no, they don’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.

Going back to our scenario, it would look something like this:

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.

If we go back and repeat the same question. Who offers a better rate?

The proper answer should be — “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…

Estimating your final bill is impossible without taking all of these charges and credits into consideration.

That’s exactly what we’re here to solve!

Our comparison page will show you plans from different electric providers 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.

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.

Using our free service, you can now easily find this information in a matter of seconds!

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 Idalou?

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.

Sounds odd, right?

To make sure that the enrgy market is competitive, law-makers decided that these TDSP’s will not be allowed to sell energy directly to the consumer.

The utility companies are, however, in charge of delivering the electricity to your home, and maintaning the power lines and the energy infrastructure.

Any issues related to power outages, blackouts, or the electric meter will need to be addressed by the utlity company, and not your provider.

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

Now that I understand that, how does it affect me?

The reason we care about this is because now you understand that the Energy Provider you sign up with will not change the “reliability” of your electricity service. You get the same electricity, from the same source, regardless of which provider you sign up with.

So what are the differences between all the other energy providers?

The main difference is that they offer different plans, structures, and prices.

Some providers focus on Green Energy, while other focus on offering No-Deposit, or Short Term Variable plans.

If prices are the same, then the main differences that you should pay attention to are the provider’s customer service, early cancellation policy, and ease of communication.

When you choose an electric plan through SlashPlan you can rest assured that you will be working with a quality energy supplier. We vet the providers that we work with and only display companies that have a strong proven track record and a high customer satisfaction score.

Not Sure Which Energy Plan Will Work For You?

Other than price, these are the top points to consider when enrolling in a new plan:

Monthly Usage – This will directly affect your effective price. To find the best possible price, it’s best if you have your previous 12-month usage history. You can then input that data into our calculator to find out exactly how much you will pay for the new plan.

Rate Type – Do you prefer a fixed-rate or a variable rate plan?

Term Length – 12 months is a standard enrollment term. If prices are low right now, take advantage of the low rates and lock-in a fixed price for 24 months or more!

Green Energy – How important is it to you? Would you like to help the environment by signing up for a Green Energy Plan?

To read more we have a blog with plenty of resources that explain everything you need to know about the energy market and useful cost-saving tactics and tips.

Our comparison tool will instantly tell which plan currently offers the cheapest price, based on your usage and the filters you select.

What Do I Need In Order To Sign Up?

It’s important to remember that SlashPlan is not your electricity provider. We created a platform that allows you to instantly 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 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!

Although 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 – The number printed on your Electric Meter. It can also be found on your recent electricity bill.
