The house here in Minnesota has finally sold and we hit the highway for Texas on 5/29!

We signed a lease on a house in McKinney (not sure, but I think it is in the Eldorado community) and were surprised when our realtor told us there are three utility companies to choose from for electric and gas!

We raise and breed tortoises who all have heat emitters and UVB bulbs in their pens, therefore we need 1) reliability and 2) pricing. Of those two factors, reliability is far and away the most important; one of our tropical species is very temperature sensitive.

So, any pertinent info and/or opinions about Conserv, Cirro, or Atmos would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you!! Tipped over excited to finally be making the move to Texas!!

Use your zip code to see who is offering best rates, read fine print for hidden fees and don't go into a lengthy contract unless offer is truly awesome. I've tried about 6 companies without any issues.

Its my understanding that if you are serviced by Coserv you have no other options. They provide gas and electric.

Depends on the area. In some areas, CoServ is the only provider, in other they share.

We've had CoServ for years and been fine with them. They are going to serve our new house, even though we have a choice of providers for that one.

Ah, that explains it. We are in an area with no choice but have been fine with Coserv. Minimal outages and usually very short when they do go out.
