Choosing the right electric company is about more than finding the lowest rate per kilowatt-hour. You want to find a company that feels trustworthy and understands you.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n There are several hidden costs that can catch you off guard and inflate your monthly bill. To help you avoid any surprises, we\u2019re breaking down the most common costs to look out for and how our prepaid service at Pronto Power can keep things straightforward.<\/span><\/p>\n Many traditional electric companies require a deposit before they\u2019ll even consider turning on your service. This can be a hefty upfront cost, especially if you\u2019re on a tight budget. Not to mention, these companies often run credit checks to determine how much deposit they\u2019ll require. If your credit isn\u2019t spotless, you could be looking at a higher deposit amount. With us, there\u2019s no need to worry about deposits or credit checks. We offer a prepaid service, which means you pay as you go, with no surprises and no strings attached.<\/span><\/p>\n Some companies sneak in fees for not using enough electricity. Sounds crazy, right? These minimum usage fees penalize you for not meeting a set usage threshold, which can be frustrating for those who are trying to be energy efficient. At Pronto Power, we believe you should only pay for the energy you use. There are no minimum usage fees with our prepaid plans, so you can save money when you\u2019re out of town or simply using less energy.<\/span><\/p>\n Locked into a long-term contract and want to switch providers? You might face an early termination fee, which can range from a few dollars to hundreds, depending on your contract. With us, there are no contracts, so you\u2019re never stuck in a situation where you\u2019re paying to leave.<\/span><\/p>\n1. Deposits and Credit Checks<\/b><\/h4>\n
