Co Serve is great. They service Denton county and I am not sure where else. They have the lowest rates around. At least on electricity. We do not haver them for gas hwhere I live, so I can't tell you about that.

We are on equalized billing with CoServe and pay $260 a month for a 2700 square foot home. This includes gas and electric, with two a/c units. We keep our a/c at 74 degrees down stairs and 72 degrees upstairs.

I'm in McKinney in a co-op neighborhood and all we have for gas and electric as an option is CoServe. I have used them for the past 4 years and have never had any issues with their services, nor have I had to make calls for complaints. Their bills are detailed showing a revolving year of services. Regarding bill paying, you can pay via their website, however they charge you an additional $4 to do so. To avoid that extra expense, you can set up automatic withdraw or pay by check. You may be able to pay directly at their offices, but I have never done any research to find that information. When the seasons change, their prices fluctuate a bit. It seems in the winter time, electric goes down, but they will charge you an extra $50 for gas. During the summer, gas is cheaper, but electric is higher. For the most part, it balances out month-to-month. Because they are a co-op, at the end of their fiscal year, if they get a profit, they will in turn pass it onto the customer. Of course, don't hold your breath for substantial refunds. I get about $3-5 back as a credit every year.

I have a 2500sq ft 2-story house w/ 2 a/c units and our costs are about $150-$200 a month depending on the season. We also added tyvek around the house, upgraded our a/c units to 12-seer and had the roof lining. We normally keep our thermostat between 71-74 during this time of year. Doing the pre-work has really kept our monthly energy costs low.

If you are buying a pre-existing house, you can call the company to see what the rate and usage has been for the home. You can also find similar houses in the neighborhood and call the company to see what their household rates are. It's considered public information.
