Read some of the recent reviews from past and present Payless Power customers.

Horrible pricing you think you would pay less but you actually pay more. Prepaid is a joke it says my average cost per day is like $10 and half the time I’m not even home, mind you it’s just my daughter and I. My daughter is also at school half the time. I would not recommend to any friends or family.

Response: Hi Jazmin, Thank you for sharing your feedback. We understand that seeing higher-than-expected daily electricity costs can be frustrating, especially for a household with limited occupancy. Our prepaid service charges are based on the actual energy used by the home, and factors such as HVAC systems, appliances, insulation, and seasonal temperatures can impact usage even when no one is home. We'd welcome the opportunity to review your account and help you better understand your daily usage and costs. Please contact our Customer Care team so we can assist you further. Thank you for your feedback. Published on November 11, 2026

No stars. I have paid in advance up to $300 per month. My power was turned off tonight without notice and was not restored within an hour after I paid $300, as promised by the Powerless agent. This is the worse company I have ever dealt with, and I intend to report them to regulators tomorrow as well as change companies. Do not sign up with this company unless you want your power turned off without notice and you want to be ignored when you pay to have your power resumed and it is not resumed.

Response: Thank you for sharing your experience, Cathy. We understand how frustrating it can be to experience a service interruption and then have concerns about the timing of service restoration after making a payment. We recognize the importance of having accurate information regarding account status, payment processing, and restoration expectations. Our goal is to provide reliable service and clear communication to every customer. We'd appreciate the opportunity to review your account, payment history, and the circumstances surrounding your service interruption to better understand what occurred and address any unresolved concerns. Please contact our Customer Care team at 1-888-963-9363, Monday through Friday, from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., so we can investigate further and work toward a resolution. Thank you for your feedback, Cathy. We value the opportunity to assist and look forward to speaking with you. Customer Care Team Published on November 06, 2026

I am paying $300 monthly for a 1 bedroom . I work all day. I have had this service for about. 3 months and I got disconnected for owing 89 Cents. Unbelievable. I think it’s time to switch to a different provider

Response: Hi Maribel, Thank you for sharing your feedback. We understand your concern regarding your monthly electricity costs and the disconnection that occurred due to an outstanding balance of $0.89. After having service for only a few months, we recognize how unexpected that situation may have seemed. Because electricity usage, weather conditions, home energy efficiency, and household consumption patterns can all affect monthly costs, bills can vary from month to month. We also understand that balancing energy expenses while maintaining a busy work schedule can be challenging. We'd appreciate the opportunity to review your account in detail, explain the charges, and discuss the circumstances surrounding the disconnection. Our team can also review your usage history and help identify ways to better manage your account moving forward. (Please reach out to our Customer Care Team at 1-888-963-9363 during standard business hours, Monday through Friday, 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM.) Maribel, we value your feedback and the opportunity to serve you. We hope to speak with you soon and address your concerns directly. Published on October 22, 2026
