No, I've never been able to choose an electric company. Or any of the basic utilities, now that I think of it. (Elec, water, gas, etc)
I don't suppose they do anything like post their rates, do they? That would make things easier.
On a side note: Am I the only old timer who saw this thread and immediately thought of the TV show? HEY YOOOOOOOU GUUUUUUUUUUYYYSS!!!!
Well google power companys in Texas. It give you a few sites that give you several companies offers.
I would chose the one with the cheapest fix rate for like 12 month contract. It worked out great for me last year. I had a fix rate of 11.6 cents per Kwh. During the summer when prices where spiking to 18 cents for some people I was getting power below market rate.

the one that is not involved in the stock market.., where I'm originally from we had a power company that wasn't trying to impress wall street with their profits. The one that was, was more expensive.
