Contract/No Contract – Fixed vs. variable • For how long do you need electricity service? • Understanding different types of plans • Make the switch Determine your electricity needs
When shopping for electricity you will see ‘fixed term’ used a lot. This means that during the length of the plan; your energy charge will remain the same throughout the term. The term of the plan can range for however long you need it to. • This can be 3 month, 12 months, or even 3 years; there are plenty of choices. Contract Vs. No Contract plans
Variable (or month-to-month) plans are contract-free plans. They may require a deposit based on your credit score. However, customers are not held in contract like in fixed term plans. • There are also no Early Termination Fees should you choose to switch to a different plan/company down the line. • The energy charge fluctuates per month; unlike Fixed Term plans. No Contract plans
Prepay; or ‘Pay As You Go’ Electricity; are contract free plans, and deposit free. • No credit check required for prepay plans. • Customers receive updates on when their account balance is low, so they should keep an eye on how much to reload on their account. • Just like a pay as you go phone, your electricity can be disconnected if customers don’t load a sufficient amount of money to their account. Contract Free Plans
TDSP Charges come from the local utility company that manages the poles/wires that actually deliver electricity service to your home. You may see these on your bill; therefore they are standard. • Plans that say ‘Minimum Usage of 1,000 kwh) Keep an eye out for plans that will charge customers if you use under a certain amount of Kilowatt hours (kWh) per month. • Base Charge- this is a standard charge each month depending on the electricity companies preference.
