Electricity providers [View all]

Has anyone else recently changed electricity providers in Texas? It's been a nightmare for me. Been trying for 2 weeks to switch providers, as my 3-yr contract with Reliant Energy expires May 2.

The website ChooseEnergy.com is a farce. Half the companies listed there do not let you change online. You have to call them up, and then they offer you plans much more expensive than you see online. So it's just a giant bait-and-switch.

Texas deregulation of the energy market is just a fucking money grab. So fucking frustrated ...

There's much more to this story, but I'm wondering about other Texan's experiences.
