Why Use SlashPlan To Compare Electricity Rates in Riverside?

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.

Without using an energy comparison service like SlashPlan you may not be aware of all discounts you can take advantage of, or the hidden fees that will mysteriously show up on your bill.

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). Most people would look at it and think that the prices are identical, therefore their monthly bill would be identical too. Wrong!

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.

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

The proper answer should be — “it depends”!

It depends on your monthly usage, and multiple other factors, such as monthly base charges, usage credits, discounts, time of usage, etc…

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

That’s where SlashPlan is here for you!

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

The final price is really what matters. To make sure you’re really getting a good deal, you need to be able to see the final monthly estimated price, including all fees and credits.

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

With our comparison service, you can finally sort and filter plans to match your specific criteria. The best options will show on top of the list by default.

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 back! We level the playing field and make shopping for cheap energy rates accessible and easy for everybody!

We supply 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 Power Company in Riverside?

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?

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 “quality” 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 companies?

The main differences are that they offer different plans, structures, and prices.

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

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

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 power company that has a proven track record of competitive prices and superb customer support.

Top 4 Things To Consider When Signing Up

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 – Helping the environment by having your Power Supplier purchase Renewable Energy Credits on your behalf to offset the impact of energy generation on the environment.

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 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 easily 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 company 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.
