Is Prepaid Electricity Better?
Prepaid electricity is best for anyone who wants to learn how to save electricity. By knowing how much energy we use, we help ourselves save more. Prepaid electricity for all!
Since most of us have an intelligent energy meter (AMS), it is easier for electricity companies to read the energy consumption. Still, we as consumers are slower than technology. If your house or apartment does not have a smart meter, cannot have prepaid electricity, you can call the energy distributor to have an AMS, ONCOR, CenterPoint, AEP Central, AEP North, or TNMP installed.
In my view and recommendation is the following; As the kWh is a bit higher, the prepaid electricity system is better for small or “efficiency” type apartments. The electricity sellers will always quote you at an average consumption of 2000 kW per month, a small department will not spend this amount, apart from that we can control more the energy consumption. Normally those of us who live in small apartments consume little energy and we are constantly looking at a way to save electricity. Those who live in bigger houses are used to bigger bills and also to the fact that in many cases energy consumption is mixed with gas and electricity, in summer more electricity is used and in winter more gas is used.
Advantages of prepaid electricity.
- Save energy.
- No credit check.
- The bill per text tells me how much I consume day by day.
- In case of disconnection and you make the necessary payment, the reconnection can be from 30 minutes to 2 hours. It’s very fast.
- No social security, license, or registration is required.
- Connection the same day, very fast and efficient.
I have had many clients who do not adapt to this type of electricity and here are some reasons why.
- The bill or statement of electricity consumption is not the traditional one that arrives a bill or paper every month in the mail. The bill for prepaid electricity is by text to your cell phone.
- The reading is very accurate and the electricity can be switched off if there are insufficient funds in the account.
- Some prepaid electric companies charge reconnection fees, up to $ 25.
- If it is disconnected, you must pay the negative balance plus the reconnection (if the company charges it) plus an amount to have a positive balance of kilowatts.
- It is necessary to make a payment before establishing the electricity service.
- If you change your cell phone number, you must notify the electricity company so that they can take the new number from you in order to send you your bill and text notifications.
- The rate per kilowatt is slightly higher; since the client does not have a contract, the client becomes (as many companies call it) “high risk” since they can leave and disconnect at any time.
