I’ve had the same issue – I’m in a 900sq/ft apartment and have noticed my electric bill being between $175-$275. My old electric bills were around 12cents and now it is 19cents (March 2009). BUT, all the data I see shows that electric rates are now lower. Gexa sucks – plus they have crappy online bill pay (you have to use PayPal). I would not use them unless you are forced into it (they are our only choice at my apartment).

I have the same issue, I beleive there is some criminal activity going on here. This is not right, prices should be going down for those on the variable rate plans. I was just lied to and told that the rates are what they are and are going up.

PS. Gexa’s current rate w/o a contract is still 21.04 cents and Reliant’s is 11.6 cents! Thats simple math for me.

I am also a Gexa customer who got the shaft with paying 21.04 cents per kWh. I called Gexa customer service and asked why the enormous increase in the rate. The representative either could not or would not answer the question. Since they cannot provide a reasonable answer as to why the sharp increase I am leaving Gexa and will not come back. I would not recommend Gexa to anybody!

I have Gexa and I stay in 1 bedroom apartment where I rarely spent the day and hence do not even switch on Air Conditioning or Heater. The only appliance used are stove top (not even oven used), refridgerator and washer (once a week). Guess what I started in January with 9.3 cents kwh and now when October bill came in it is 21.04 cents pWh.I unfortunately did not lock it since I though after summer the rates would go down but .. . One word GEXA s.u.c.k.s !!!
