3 steps to understand your bill

What Could Be Causing Your High Bill

We analyze your bill against these four categories to pinpoint the issue.

☀️

Seasonal Spike

Texas summers are brutal. Your AC is working overtime. This is normal—but we'll tell you if your rate is competitive for high-usage months.

📊

Rate Mismatch

Your plan's rate structure doesn't fit your usage pattern. You might be paying tiered rates that spike at your usage level.

📈

Usage Spike

Your usage jumped significantly from last month, and it's not seasonal. Something changed—new appliance, HVAC issue, or lifestyle change.

💸

Provider Overcharging

Your effective rate is significantly higher than market average. You're overpaying—and it's time to switch.

Questions?

Everything you need to know about bill diagnosis.

What information do I need from my bill? ▼
Just four things: your provider name, bill date, total kWh used, and total amount charged. For better analysis, add your previous month's data too.
How do you compare my rate to market? ▼
We compare your effective rate (total cost ÷ kWh) to the current market average for similar usage levels in Texas.
Why does seasonal matter? ▼
In Texas, summer bills are typically 40-50% higher than spring bills due to AC usage. A $300 July bill might be normal.
