I would jump at .069 per KWH. You can't touch that in this area. My rate usually runs around .10 per KWH or more and that is through a member owned co-op.

TX "deregulated" electric power in 2002 and it's a frickin mess (IMHO anyway). You have wholesalers, retailers, fixed rates, variable rates and in this area alone I must have 100 different plans available and few are actually apples/apples comparisons and you better read the fine print very carefully. And by the way, our rates have gone nothing but up and service nothing but down. If you have billing issues you call your "retailer", if you have power issues you call your "wholesaler" and sometimes you just throw up....
