Our rate was $0.124 Emoticonlus the extra fees. I now pay $0.097 and that includes the service fees. 
@Real:  We just renewed in January and got $0.083.  Each time I hear the "Ambit Pitch" I just tell them how much I pay, and challenge them to beat it.  They can't and that's usually the last I hear from them. 
 
Ambit is also a pyramid company.  You sign up and "sell" services to other people who "sell" services and the upline gets a cut.  That's why their prices can be beat almost every time...cuz they have to pay people along the line. 
 
Very similar to that Amway set up.

Yeah, that is a decent rate, but there are many on Powertochoose that offer similar rates. 4951

Do you really take us for fools with that pitch.  EmoticonIf you can't be bothered to do your homework every year before it's time to renew, then that's your problem. Emoticon EmoticonEmoticonEmoticonEmoticon 4951

Ambit has a shaky reputation at best.  Not interested. 4951

I am only trying to help....take what you want and leave the rest if you don't like it. I will not be offended.I am not a scammer.  Why would anyone want to post on the forum if the response is name calling and high school like.Donna, thank you for your advice. When I moved to Texas I was not familiar with deregulation and I was taken by the company I signed up with. I now know more about energy billing and rates then I ever cared to know.  I can look at your bill and tell you the true AVERAGE rate that you are paying. This was not something I did not know how to do. It makes it a lot easier to compare apples to apples. I saw where one person thought their rate was .03 per Khw (it even said that on their bill), but when you took their usage and divided by the total due for that months service they were paying .11 per Khw. I know it sounds like I am pitching the business, I am not I am pitching...be wise about your electric bill. Even the cell phone companies make their billing method and service rates a puzzle so that it takes an expert to figure out what your true rate is in order to compare apples to apples. 4951

@Real:  As you mention, the only true test of actual costs is to take each months total $ and divide by the electricity usage (kWh).  THAT"S what you are really paying.  There are too many ways for companies to look good on their Electricity Facts Label (EFL) and you end up paying much more than it appears. 4951
