I have a good one for you: ignite I have a friend who works there, so if you're interested I looking into them, let me know and I'll give you some names to drop ...
Try living in on the top floor of a 1936-built duplex... At least we have some good tree-shade outside. You're right about the A/C... I'm hoping it's not the same one from '78, or it's struggling right now... Oh, and you asked before about rebates/offers from various providers for switching... most offer them (even for switching products internally at Reliant). Some folks also mentioned the AA/Continental Miles programs. http://www.reliantheatrelief.com (up to $50 in gift cards depending on whether or not you're already a customer) http://www.txu.com/Cultures/en-US/Energy/Residential/EnergyToolsAndServices/TXU+Energy+Rewards.htm (I think they also offer a $25 Linens and Things card) Didn't see any current online promos for Gexa, DE, or Green Mountain... but that doesn't mean they don't have them. You might just have to ask on the phone.
I thought the billboards were kinda funny too until I read in Forbes about the disparity in pay between their top execs... talk about ZING! http://www.forbes.com/static/execpa...ListType=Person&uniqueId=4AMQ&datatype=Person http://www.forbes.com/static/execpa...ListType=Person&uniqueId=DKX3&datatype=Person
