The switching process is very simple.
- Decide to save with our low rates
- Take 10 minutes to submit your request* by calling 512-827-7722
- Then, in 4 to 7 days, the switch occurs and you are saving money
It really is that simple. If you have more questions, see many answers here.
You don’t even have to call or notify your current provider.
Your current provider is notified electronically and they will send you a final bill after the switch.
Here is the information we’ll need to submit the order:
- Name you would like for the account
- Service and billing address
- Phone number
- Date of birth and SSN
- Chosen plan/rate
That’s it!
The whole process takes about 10 minutes. Just 10 minutes and you could be saving $50 or more a month.
*Once your switch request is submitted, electronic notices are sent to ONCOR, ERCOT, and your current provider. In 4 to 7 days ONCOR will send a meter technician to your home to read the meter. From that point on, you will be with your new provider, and on a much lower electricity rate.
ONCOR is the regulated local wires company for this area. They repair lines, and read meters for all customers, regardless of retail provider.
ERCOT (Electric Reliability Council of Texas) acts as the ‘overseer’ of all transactions taking place on the electricity grid. They help the consumer by assisting to confirm all requests are authorized.Your current provider receives an electronic notice that you have ended the account. Your provider will then send you a final bill. (There is no need for you to contact your provider when requesting a switch).
