Utilities - Texas

To compare Rates and Service Record -

The Official Electric Choice Web site of the Public Utility Commission of Texas:

http://www.powertochoose.org/

First, check the company’s name on the Houston Better Business Bureau’s website: http://houston.bbb.org/Find-Business-Reviews/

Sometimes, a power provider doing business in Houston is not based in Texas, and may only show up in a national search. In that case, you should also check the national Better Business Bureau database at: http://www.bbb.org/us/Find-Business-Reviews/

The Texas Public Utility Commission maintains customer service statistics on all power providers doing business in Texas: http://www.powertochoose.org/_content/_complaint/index.aspx

The PUC also offers graphics that show changes in the level of complaints against a company over time: http://www.powertochoose.org/_content/_complaint/index_grid.aspx
