On Again. Off Again.
This app would be solid if it worked consistently. I constantly have to resubmit payments when I utilize the pay service in the app. You can save or enter your payment info each time. Then there’s a button to “submit” or “cancel”. Each time I hit “submit”, the spinning image appears and I wait and it goes right back to the submit page. Over and over and over again. Please fix this issue. Thank you.

Week by week
Why does this app have to be removed and reloaded every time you use it? Not thought thru. updates every three four five days .just depends on the person who is on the other end- when they decide to work. I would say if you check it every week it won’t disappoint but if you are one who likes to see your use daily- so sad too bad. It appears these untimely updates happen when the weather turns very cold or very hot. Thee very times when you need to watch the usage. Not happening with this lazy app. A company this big can’t afford to hire a developer who actually understands the purpose of the whole thing. Oh and it also can’t count days. It counts days remaining from the day you’re viewing but that’s misleading because the actual days of use remaining could be another three or four depending on the last day to view. It has no weekly use chart. But that too would probably be two or three weeks behind. Making it- yes- nearly worthless. Disappointing. Constantly - gotta change the light bulb times- but I’ve yet to see improvements. Might as well just read the meter and do the math yourself.

Talk about finger on the pulse of my usage
This app is the first energy app I've ever seen. It is so easy to understand, even I get it. The one thing I didn't think I was sure I understood, I made a phone call abs, we'll I did understand! That was the summer pass program.. Now, for sure it isn't half the bill, just half the usage, but what a great program! And TXU and before them WTU, always encouraged me to make purchases that would lower my bill. We were finally able to do that. When we had Gideon Heating and Air Conditioning install a new system, I had no idea it was even possible for it to pay for itself in less than 4 years, but that's what it looks like. Our usage just plummeted. And we're cooler this summer than we've ever been. One other thing, because Benny told me that I would not save like I could if I'd just get a turbine on the roof and insulation in the attic, and he got me connections to do that easily and reasonably priced. Between TXU and Benny Gideon, we no longer dread the drain to our fixed income and we're comfortable all day, all night long. Hats off to both of y'all.

Glitchy at best
The app is terrible, glitches on sign in, error alerts with no explanation, failures to load. But thats to be expected right?-because if u have ur consumers using a glitchy app then maybe u can increase the likelihood that people get booted and forget/can’t pay, which means you guys can COLLECT MORE CASH from late fees & disconnect/reconnect services! It’s a borderline predatory business practice. And no matter what the app developer says about this review, consider this: what other reason could they have for collecting so much money from everybody but can’t seem to be able to develop even a halfway functional app that consumers can use? Almost every other energy provider in our market has a vastly better app. Somebody should take these reviews and file a PUC COMPLAINT (public utilities commission). Bet it gets fixed then!

Can’t Make Future/Scheduled Payments
I have had this app for a few years and it has been updated so many times but you still can’t make a payment for the future. If you want to pay your bill using today’s date, it will work but my bill is not due until later this month. I tried to schedule it but get a different error message this time. It says “Payment failed”, which is pretty vague. I don’t understand why scheduling a payment for the future won’t ever work. So if you forget to pay on the due date, you will be assessed late fees. Just seem really scam-ish…forcing people to only be able to make same day payments via App. They should publicize that the App works like this and set the real expectation and limitation of this App..

Very basic app
This is a very basic app where you can view your usage, current amount due, and make a payment but that’s about it as far as servicing your account. It lacks the ability to view monthly or previous statements, the ability to view your payment history, and the ability to view or make changes to anything related to your profile or account settings. It is also missing a place to view contact information if you have any issues so if you need to contact anyone you have to go to the website to get a phone number. Lots of room for improvement compared to other utility apps I have used before moving to Texas.

Can’t add a new payment method, no idea why
Tried to add a bank account/routing number as a second form of payment method. Info I added was correct, but I got an error message when I hit the submit button. Happened 3 times. Message said to call customer service, and there is no clue as to what the problem is. My previous experience with TXU customer service was very poor, with incredibly long wait times (over 40 minutes) to speak to someone. So, I am very disappointed that this app is not functioning any better than your customer service system. You should really be able to do better than this.

Free Power
My plan ended; didnt know TXU tries to play the "well we told you so" game by sending the end date with the bill. My bill was more than double one month in the summer. TXU acts like it was soooo hard to make an adjustment to reinstate my original plan going over a half-decade. They know when electricity is used thanks to cancer-causing S.M.A.R.T. meters; they know i used my electricity during free power times. You dont want to return loyalty? Fine. I would rather divert from the Great Reset this dark company is probably apart of anyway. Im going to another company, or no company. Rest assured, when im on the cusp of moving i will steal electricity (we are capable of infinite energy, ive had enough of playing ALL these games)and not pay these thieves.

There is no way you can talk with a representative.
We have been without power for over 20 hrs now. I am a disabled veteran and I use medical equipment to sleep by. Because of the lack of communication abilities.i can not find out when the service will be restored. I’m not able to sleep . Which affects my health. I get a text that it has been repaired and it says enter OUT! Which I did do. Then your app says unable to make contact through texts because of issues. You would think since the ice out we had two years ago Oncor would figure how to be prepared for this. Very poor service and the Texas Governor office will notified.

Simple App
Very useful app to see information about your bill and how much energy is being used. One flaw is it’s quite outdated when it comes to looks and functionality on new devices. This app is still not support on the iPhone X, but works perfectly. It’s not something major just something to keep a look out for. Other than that great job for providing this to us customers 👍

New app is terrible
This new app is full of info I don’t need . I like the older simple to navigate app . I have multiple accounts which I used to be able to read now I have a mess of info I don’t care about , I used to be able to monitor current use easily but now I’m not sure if the option is still there with all the stuff I don’t care about . This app which used to be a simple way to manage and pay my accounts is now an annoying app I don’t really care to navigate. I don’t ever rate or write reviews but this new format compared to the old deserves negative star ratings

Some information is just made up
This app has what TXU calls an “Energy Dashboard” that purports to show you what percentage of your electricity is used for different things. That information is fake. It shows I use 38% off my electricity heating water, despite me using natural gas for that purpose. So don’t use the information to help you decide where to make changes in your usage. The daily/monthly usage data is helpful.

Options screen
This app does not give you the option to view your bills and payment. When trying to access the tab come up to move your services or choose another plan. Sometimes after a few tries it might come up but today it didn’t. And I was not able to log out. It’s rather frustrating. That really needs to be fixed.

Why Fix What Isn’t Broke
I really liked the old format better! Why does everyone think they need to change something that’s working just fine!? Now I have to figure out this new formatting and that takes time. -__- Update: once I’ve paid my bill could you show a $0.00 instead of making it look like I still owe the payment. It looks like it didn’t go through and it makes me want to pay it again!

I love this app. It's so easy to log in pay your bill & review your current usage for the month. My favorite feature is to see the estimated bill so you can have an idea of what next month will be like & you can make adjustments to keep your bill at a reasonable price. The only thing that would be cool is if it had notifications to remind you the bill is coming up.

Finding my plan
We have had TXU for going on 27 years at this current location. I can go look at most things I am looking for, My plan is listed BUT, when I try to click on it to see the plan & see how much I am being charged per kWh, it is No where to be found. In fact I don’t know how much I am being charged until I get my bill!!!! How about showing me exactly what I am being charged per kWh!!!! Please tell me exactly where to find this, I would appreciate it, unless this is something you don’t want me to see until I get my bill. Ok, you can answer others, but cannot answer mine!!!! Not a happy camper. You could tell me as to where to check to find out my cents per usage!!!!

Have to delete App to get an estimate
I like the convenience of looking the estimate of what my bill is throughout the month. The last couple of months I have to delete the App and reinstall to get the new estimate. I have even called to find out is going on and was told I can go online to look at my estimate throughout the month. Please can someone find out what’s going on with your app?

Yankees!!??
I am not sure where the individual who complained about no being able to look up historical bills and payments. Not able to check your present contract, etc. I seem to have been able to find these things in the app for as long as l have had it (Which is about as long as it has been around). I have used the app since my first iPhone ( a 2 or 3). So if anyone has trouble finding things in the app, they are not looking at the app. I find it simple to use.

Does not work correctly
This app is always on the fritz. It does not work a lot of the time. I don’t pay my bill from the app because it might not get to them. I don’t use it for anything other than to see an amount which is usually broken links when I try to use it. So I have to wait for paper bill. Service of the company is good and if you call they are friendly.

It would be nice if there were alerts when your bill is due or a notification like other apps. Also sometimes it would be good if the app would update at times if it takes some time to cycle through when putting in info.

A problem with this app
For the most part this app is easy to use. The problem I have with it is when I've messed up and forgot to pay my bill. It's wanting me to pay the bill I'm wanting to pay as well as the bill not yet due. This is the only problem I've ever had with this app.

Poor app performance Poor App in general
In 2024 I’m surprised a legacy feeling app like this still exists. The API calls take an eternity, majority of the time I am in the app I spend most my time loading. The UI is old-feeling and non-modern, no animations, style, or swift feeling movement. It’s a basic app with basic functions and it can’t even get the basics correct which is embarrassing. The App at the very least needs a performance refactor. Product owners and Developers get to work!!

Can you update to remember my credentials/thumbprint?
App is OK but could be significantly better. iPad version does not adjust for landscape. It does not remember password or allow thumbprint verification. Graphs could be more informative and easier to read. It's hard to tell if it's a month from last year is higher temperature/usage then this year because of layout.

Sometimes it works…
Like other reviewers, the app sometimes works and often doesn’t. Worrisome with autopay or when trying to pay bills. Today it says I’m not connected to Internet which is wrong as I’m connected to wifi. I hope I don’t get late fees because their app doesn’t work 1/2-3/4 of the time and customers can’t pay their bill. Please fix this!

iPhone X Crashes
Please add support for the iPhone X. It’s been along time since it’s been released and most every other company with apps out there have gotten on board. I’m sure you guys have a big team of developers I can get this done easily and it’s really frustrating because your website is not mobile friendly. I have to call if I want to schedule a payment for a few days later! FRUSTRATING!!! ...but still WAY BETTER than that “Stream” Pyramid scheme!!!🙄

Analytics don’t work
Estimated bill features are typically very wrong and can cause a ton of stress. Sometimes your estimated bill cost will soar, causing you to think there is a problem. Other times, estimates will be low and then suddenly change to skyrocket. This app is a detriment to your health. Your blood pressure will be on a rollercoaster ride. TXU app customer service is outsourced so you’re not going to get good help. Not looking at this app is the best solution.

Spent 30 minutes with someone who claimed to be tech supervisor and had no idea how the app worked or could explain why it would not allow the few potions available to function.
