Hey everyone, I'm moving into a new apartment in Dallas this weekend and I'm hitting a wall with setting up my utilities. My credit isn't the best right now and the standard electric companies are quoting me insane deposits (like $400+) just to turn the lights on.
Can anyone recommend a decent prepaid electricity provider? I just need something with no credit check where I can pay as I go, preferably one that can connect it by Friday.
Look into Now Power. They specialize in prepaid plans and don't do credit checks or require deposits. As long as your place has a smart meter, they can usually get you connected the exact same day.
Prepaid is definitely the way to go if you're trying to avoid those crazy ERCOT utility deposits. Just remember to actually keep track of your usage so it doesn't shut off on a weekend!
