Ambit Energy electric choice in Texas

Since 2002, energy in Texas has been deregulated and electric companies no longer hold monopolies over certain areas. This means that the power to choose has been put into your hands and you are able to shop for the rates and plans that best meet your needs. Make sure that you do your research before choosing an Ambit Energy plan.

ComparePower can help you do the research and comparisons that ensure you are getting the best rates for your area. It was established in 2009 as a free service for consumers and displays rates and plans in a systematic, easy to read format. It is fast and simple to browse plans from numerous companies in your area.

Instead of wasting hours researching plans, you can let ComparePower do the work. They will inform you of all the hidden fees that companies don’t advertise, so you can compare “apples to apples” the true costs of each plan.

Compare Ambit Energy rates with competing Texas energy plans

Ambit Energy is an electric and natural gas service provider to residents in deregulated energy market areas in the U.S. including Texas, New York, Virginia, California, Illinois, Maryland, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Delaware, Connecticut, New Jersey, Washington D.C., Pennsylvania, and Rhode Island.

The company was founded in 2006 by telecommunication energy industry veteran Jere Thompson and Chris Chambless of Texas. Their business model is lowering energy bills for their customers and providing a way for their direct sales consultants to earn extra money and incentives through multi-level marketing (MLM) plan.

Before you sign up with Ambit you should shop rates from other providers to ensure you are getting the best rate possible.  Due to the multilevel marketing (MLM) nature of their business model, it is difficult for Ambit to offer the lowest electricity rates in Texas as they must pay independent sales consultants (middlemen) all the way up the ladder.

The rates table below enables you to compare Ambit offers with other competitive Texas energy providers to ensure you are in fact getting the best rate possible for your household. The rates presented here are updated live 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

How to choose the best electricity plan in Texas

Selecting an Ambit Energy plan without knowing your home’s energy usage can cost you hundreds or thousands of dollars.

The #1 most important thing: Know your usage!

The key to avoiding overpaying is knowing your expected usage and comparing monthly costs for each plan based on that usage amount.

With things like gasoline, the “price per gallon” you see on the sign is the price you pay no matter how many gallons you pump.

$3 per gallon. Pump 10 gallons, and pay $30. Simple.

Electricity in Texas is not as simple as buying gasoline. The advertised “price per kWh” is based on a specific, exact monthly usage (usually 2000 kWh).

And, each plan has a different calculation for how your monthly bill is determined.

Your effective “price per kWh” can only be determined by calculating your monthly bill, then dividing that monthly bill by your usage.

Advertised “price per kWh” can be misleading because it’s based on a specific usage like 2000 kWh. It’s best to shop based on the total bill for your home’s expected usage.

How do you do that when the math is complicated, and every plan is a little different?

ComparePower has already done all this complicated math for you.

First, we help you determine your expected monthly kWh usage. Then we show you the plans and their total monthly cost for your usage.

Ambit Energy reviews

Looking for ratings and reviews for Ambit Energy?

Several companies rate electricity providers. ComparePower does not include customer reviews as they are generally biased or easy to manipulate and skew one way or the other (positive or negative).

Often, a review is requested a mere few days after enrolling in a new energy plan, which may not be an adequate amount of time for a customer to experience the product or service.

Many customers who take the time to leave feedback typically do so as an effort to resolve a problem and are using negative feedback as a forum to draw attention to their issue.

Customers who leave positive reviews are generally incentivized to do so and therefore tend to be biased.

So what are we left with?  There are a few long-standing customer review portals that attempt to remove bias. One of these is the Better Business Bureau and the other is the Public Utility Commission of Texas.

  • Read customer reviews and ratings about Ambit Energy on the Better Business Bureau (BBB) website.
  • Read customer complaints about Ambit Energy on the Public Utility Commission of Texas website.

Ambit Energy consultant

Looking to earn money by becoming an Ambit independent consultant? Read this before you take the plunge.

Ambit Energy sales consultants locate customers, educate them about how much money they can expect to save and tell prospects about the opportunity to earn money by becoming a part of their sales team.

Sales consultants recoup their investment and make extra money through incentives called customer acquisition bonuses. Consultants earn bonuses by signing up customers and having them refer their friends and family.

The compensation varies depending on what state you’re in. However, the average payment for a consultant is reported to be around 1% of each new sign-up.

Ambit also requires consultants to have at least 20 active customers paying for energy before they can receive commissions. That means you need to convince 20 people to switch companies before you can even be paid.

Multi-Level Marketing requires a firm knowledge of direct sales tactics and hard selling – which is not ideal for most people and definitely not for newbies. It’s difficult to get started unless you already have a large network of people waiting to buy from you.
