Are you switching providers?

By Texas law, you can switch out of your contract up to 14 days early of your contract end date without penalty.

And many providers on ComparePower will let you lock the rates you see today for a start date of 60-90 days in the future.

Review your bill to determine when your contract ends. You may need to call your energy provider to find out if it’s not listed on your bill.

Do not renew or sign another contract with your current provider without shopping on ComparePower.

You can usually get a much better deal if you switch.

We often get promotional rates for customers not already with a specific provider – meaning you will likely need to switch providers to get these deals.

Switching electricity providers is easy and shouldn’t stop you from switching for savings.

Are you moving soon?

If you are moving, you can also terminate your contract without penalty. You do not have to transfer your current rate plan to your new home.

Energy companies will try to get you to transfer your service instead of canceling, but they cannot force you.

So, shop your options when you move before simply transferring service. Moving is perfect for getting out of a bad electricity rate plan!

Should you cancel your current electricity contract early?

If you’re in a contract that doesn’t end soon, find out what fees you’d be subject to for switching early.

Sometimes the savings you can find on ComparePower can more than offset the cancellation cost.

It may be worthwhile to cancel your current contract, pay the cancellation fees, and enroll in a plan where the savings make up for the cost of terminating your contract.

Contact us here if you need help.

We can remind you when it’s time to shop.

Do you want us to remind you when your contract ends so that you can find a better deal?

Use the form, and we will notify you of the best rates when your contract ends.

Be careful not to renew or sign another contract with your current provider without first checking ComparePower to shop across numerous providers.

You will likely find a better deal by switching companies than by renewing with your current company.
