TruBill™ Estimations

Using our TruBill™ algorithm, we estimate your monthly electricity bill based on typical home energy usage.

The Typical Monthly Usage column shows your usage during average weather — not too hot, not too cold. Because Texas summers drive AC usage up and mild months bring it down, your actual bill will vary. Minimum reflects your lowest expected bill in mild months; Maximum reflects peak summer; Average is the estimated mean across all twelve months.

Our Assessment:

This is a "Bill Credit" plan, it includes a 13.9¢ per kWh energy charge, which is offset by a $125.00 bill credit if you use at least 1000kWh of energy per month. If you do not qualify for the bill credit, your bill could be larger than expected.

For a more predictable bill, you should choose a "Fixed Rate" plan.

Plan Renewal:

If you order this plan and start it today, you will be up for renewal 12 months from now in June of 2027.

You might consider a different length plan, because this plan will expire in June when rates are seasonally higher.

Electricity rates are generally highest from June through September.

How We Rate

We aggregate data from multiple sources, including our customer reviews, rates, Public Utility Commission statistics, JD Power ratings, Better Business Bureau, and surveys.

Ambit Energy, founded in 2006 in Texas, is a Network Marketing, aka (multi-level marketing,) retailer. In 2019, Ambit was acquired by Vistra Energy, (TXU's Parent Company), in a deal worth $475 million.

Looking beyond MLM marketing. Ambit offers competitve rates, green energy options and has comprable customer support. So if a family member or friend is asking you to sign up. . . it's worth taking a look. If you're looking to sign up as a new Ambit "consultant," do you have connections, relationships and cash to offset the startup and monthly costs of the Ambit Partner program?

From an objective standpoint and that's our view. . Ambit has all the bells and whistles that every major retail electricity company has. Top tier billing, good customer service, a modern online interface, etc. If you're a customer it's pretty seamless. Our view of Ambit is that it's problematic for the consultants. The monthly fees, and economics make it hard for any but the most aggressive consultants to break even and make financial sense.

Ambit Energy receives mixed reviews: competitive initial rates but frequent complaints about price hikes, aggressive disconnection policies, and poor customer service. Most satisfied customers pay on time, while those with late payments report harsh penalties. We also get multiple complaints about hidden fees and billing transparency.
