Renewal Notifications

Thank You For Being a Valued XOOM Energy Customer and Choosing Us to Meet Your Electricity Needs

 

Toward the end of your term plan contract, you will receive three notices about when your contract will expire. The third and final notice will include details of the month-to-month plan you will default to, should you not take action before your current contract expires. This is a new requirement by the Texas PUC and no immediate action is needed.

We will be sharing all of the great renewal options we have for you close to your contract expiration date. We are here to make renewing easy. 

 

Here’s what you need to know about these renewal notices.

 

Why am I getting this notice?

House Bill 16, which became effective in September 2021, requires all retail electricity providers such as Reliant to provide three contract expiration notices to fixed price customers during the last third of the contract period.


When does my current contract end?

Your current contract ends with the first meter read on or after the date shown under your plan information online or on your paper statement. To see when your contract expires, log in, go to My Plan, and you should see your plan expiration date on the page as shown below.

 

Does my current plan still have a cancellation fee?
