For individuals moving into or out of Laredo, it is possible to request your current electricity provider to terminate your plan. If you possess a long-term plan and are relocating outside the area, you can cancel your service without incurring an early termination fee. In case your electricity provider also operates in your new city, you can transfer your service. Prior to transferring, it is advisable to use Home Energy Club to compare electricity rates in Laredo, TX and ensure you receive the most affordable rate in your new zip code.

Switching Electricity Providers

Alternatively, you may choose to switch energy providers. In this scenario, your new electricity company will assist you in transitioning from your old contract to the new one. However, if you decide to switch plans for your current home before your contract end date, be cautious of early termination fees (ETFs). The Electricity Facts Label (EFL) associated with each plan provides information about the fee imposed for early cancellation. If you discover a plan with a significantly lower rate than your current one, it may be beneficial to pay the early termination fee and switch, but it is essential to calculate the costs beforehand. By waiting until 14 days before your current contract expires, you can avoid the fee. Moreover, it is typically possible to enroll in a plan weeks or months in advance to secure the advertised rate at that time.
