McKinney Prepaid Power: It’s Easy, Convenient, and No Credit Check Required

Moving into a new house, dorm room, or apartment is a hassle. Everyone seems to be asking for a deposit, a credit check, a month in advance, and you are up to your neck in contracts. What seemed like such an easy task has turned into a nightmare. Fortunately, setting up power with McKinney’s prepaid power leader, Pronto Power, is stress-free.

What is prepaid power?

Rather than waiting for a bill to arrive every month, prepaid power is just that – you pay for your power as you use it. Service begins with a small amount in your account you use to pay for your usage. When it runs low, add more funds. This allows you to stay current on your bill rather than receiving an unexpected bill at the end of the month. 

A call away to power today

Pick up your phone and dial 844 621-2852 to be connected to a courteous customer service representative who will inform you that your service can begin in as little as one hour – that’s our promise of power within an hour! As long as your home has a smart meter, your service is on almost as soon as you hang up the phone. You will be equipped with an app to allow you to check your usage in real time as well as tell you how much money you have in your account. 

How the app works

Along with usage and billing, your interactive app could very possibly save you a lot of money. Because you can see your power usage in real time, you can diagnose how well your appliances are working. If you notice a huge spike in electric usage when you turn on your dishwasher, for instance, you might check online to see the average power usage for your brand of dishwasher. If your old dishwasher is using way too much power, it might need to be repaired or replaced. New energy-efficient models generally pay for themselves in a year or so with the money saved on your electric costs. 

Also, studies have proven that consumers who monitor their electric use are more likely to use less electricity, which benefits them since they pay less on their bills, and benefits everyone on the grid since the reduced combined energy usage is less likely to lead to brownouts or blackouts. 

How to begin

Once you download the power app, you add funds into your account. These funds are not a deposit, they are your money to use to pay for your service. When you notice the amount in your account is running low, simply call us to add more funds to your account or add funds via your phone. As long as your account is one penny or more, your service remains on. 

Every morning you will receive a text, email, or both to let you know how much money you have in your account. You can add money at that time or wait – it is totally up to you. When you add funds, add enough to last one day, one week, or the entire month. Budget your money to pay every two weeks if that works for you or pay daily!

No matter how diligently you budget, sometimes unexpected expenses eat up your earnings. If you know in advance you will run out of funds before you are paid again, reach out to our caring customer service team. We work with you to defray billing until your next paycheck and do not charge you any reconnect fees, late fees, or any other hidden charges.

We know you have the option of shopping for other power companies, and we strive to make your experience with Pronto Power the best possible. Call us at 844 621-2852 any time. We look forward to inviting you into our family.
