How prepaid lights work
Pay upfront
Load your account with $40-75 to get started. This becomes your power balance.
Use power
Your balance decreases daily based on your usage. Most light companies send daily text updates.
Add more when low
Get alerts when balance is low. Add funds online, by phone, or at retail locations.
Don't let it hit $0
If your balance runs out, your service can be disconnected. Keep it topped up.
The honest tradeoff
Prepaid isn't free money. Here's what you're trading for that $0 deposit:
Prepaid costs more per month
Prepaid rates are typically 30-50% higher than traditional plans. On average, that's about $50-70 more per month for a typical Arlington household.
The math: If you can get a traditional plan with $0-100 deposit, it's often cheaper in the long run. But if you're looking at a $300+ deposit you can't afford, prepaid makes sense — at least until you can build 12 months of payment history and switch.
