The catch
Monthly base charge of $7.50, before any electricity is used.
At the end of the term, this plan renews itself onto a month-to-month variable rate. Holdover rates usually run well above the contract rate, so mark the end date and shop again.
Cancellation fee: None
Fees in the fine print

- Late payment: 5% of the past-due balance
