Who has the best energy plans??? (credit, how much, home)

[Mirror45]

I presently have TXU energy and am moving to a different home in the DFW area and toying with the idea of switching energy companies.

It's just myself as I do not use a lot of electricity except in the summer when I have the ac on constantly, hahaha. Example in Oct I used 800 kWh and Nov. I only used 293 kWh.

I always see all these promotions of a lower rate, but would like to know if anyone has actual switched companies for better or worse.
Thoughts?, What to look for?

To be honest if you want the best rate you would need to constantly switch electricity providers to get the best promotion. The catch is you have to stay within the rate limits so for example if its 5 cents for 1000 KWh if you go over that 1000 the rate might jump to 10 cents. All energy company's are the same they just provide the billing for the power so when looking at them look at billing complaints. Oncor supplies the power so if you ever have an outage you will be calling them not the person that bills you.

Another Service that looks promising is Energy Ogre. https://www.energyogre.com/
They constantly look for the best rates and will notify you and if you agree they will switch you to the cheaper plan based on the savings that you might get. So they might sign you up for a 3 month plan during the summer that is super low and then a longer 6 month plan for when you don't use as much energy. Its $10 a month but the savings that they can give you might make it worth it.

Also, check every company's "electricity facts label" on power to choose. It's rarely as simple as just seeing who has the lowest kWh rate, because they all have different rates at different tiers of usage, and some have credits or debits if you go over/stay under a certain threshold, or have a minimum amount of energy you'll get charged for no matter how much you use.

This site promises savings... I've never used it, however.

I'm currently looking at [url]www.electricchoice.com[/url] to see how I can lower my electric bill. So far it looks very promising, going to make some calls today.
