Ambit Energy Has A Semi Competitive Month To Month Plan

After browsing through multiple electric company pages today I ran across Ambit Energy’s page again. I had seen it before because there appears to be quite a few Ambit Energy sales associates advertising their energy products on just about any advertising medium available across the internet. Not to be rude, but many of the people making claims regarding Ambit are using hype type language that makes someone like me want to vomit. Have you ever had one of those telemarketers call you or gotten email promising they can make you a millionaire somehow with just a few hours of time a day?

I am old enough to have been given different scam opportunities over my lifetime and fortunately I haven’t fallen for any of them yet. Ambit Energy is an electric provider that offers low cost electric service to residential customers across the state of Texas. I checked into it and they have a month to month rate that starts at 9.9 cents kWh and what it does after the first month is not fully disclosed anywhere that I could find on their site. In comparison to this I found another electric provider called Startex Power that had a month to month electric rate like Ambit’s for 9.3 cents kWh. Of course with either of these electric rates it will go up on the 2nd 3rd 4th month on and on. From what I hear the average electric rate after the 1st month promo rate is some where in the vacinity of 12 - 13 cents a kWh. That is ok I guess since you are not on a contract and can switch without penalty at anytime but I wanted to know what the rate does after the first month. Startex Power discloses what the electric rate does the last 2 historical months. I looked on Startex Power’s site and unlike Ambit Energy they had the last 2 months of what the electric rate looked like for their month to month rate. It was  12.3 in February and 12.9 in March which corresponds with what the electric market has been doing over the last few months. The electric commodities market is at an all time high right now.
