When shopping for an electric rate or electric company what you will see is a deposit issue where every electric company you talk to wants you to pay a large deposit.
When one light company asks you for a deposit chances are high that they all will.
The reason for this is simply because they all check your credit to see if you statically are likely to pay all your electric bills.
If your credit falls below a certain level you will be asked for a deposit and this protects the light company from losing money on you.
You have a way around this problem and it is simply by using a prepaid electric company that does not ask for deposits.
A prepaid light company takes your electric bill payment in advance instead of billing you 30 – 45 days after you have accumulated electric usage.
By paying in advance the light company is guaranteed to get their payment and you are guaranteed to get lights turned on fast.
The prepaid electricity company allows a win win situation for the light company and the customer with not so perfect credit.
