After a long research on electric utilities, I settled for NEC Coop. Any other provider better?

I’d caution against variable rates. The Texas grid can be highly volatile and you could be stuck with sky high prices.

I just joined Octopus Energy and I get a very good low rate for enrolling my Nest thermostat into their Intelligent Octopus program

A coop structure does not insulate them or you from electricity market price volatility risk. That’s good the last freeze didn’t impact their customers, but variable rates are still inherently risky and there’s always a chance customers get stuck with the bill.

Choose your own adventure!

have had NEC for 3 years no issues

It is variable fee but doesn’t appear to have all gimmicks.

Also if any one wants a referral please DM. $60 off first bill.

Ironhorse is the shit.

I have reliant and I negotiate my rates frequently. It also depends on what your base rate, delivery charge, and per KWH rate

Just like you negotiate a job, have leverage and competing rates. They do have levers they can pull. But be willing to walk away.

My rate is 0.09c per kWh

HELP! 30+ years of teaching Sped and I’m at a loss. 6th grade student in Middle School with Doose syndrome. Prior to MS, the elementary said he never caused problems. Since the 1st day, he is disruptive in class, refuses to work, and is disrespectful. He has a one-on-one para but she is in tears most days because of his behavior. Parents agreed with a behavior plan - he thinks it’s a game. Parents say he is not allowed to be this way at home.
