Reading an offer

What to check before signing anything in Florida.

Your utility gas rate

Florida Public Service Commission requires utilities to publish the rate they charge customers who have not chosen a supplier. In Florida it is called the utility gas rate, and it appears on your bill. It is the only honest benchmark for any offer you are shown.

Fixed or variable

A fixed rate holds for the length of the contract regardless of weather, storms or market swings. Terms usually run 6, 12, 24 or 36 months. A variable rate moves month to month, and the upside risk tends to land on customers.

Monthly recurring charges

Some plans carry a flat monthly fee attached to a lower per-unit rate. Below a certain usage the fee costs more than the lower rate saves, which is why the all-in figure is the only one worth comparing.

Cancellation terms

Early termination fees are normal and rarely a problem on shorter contracts. They matter on 24- and 36-month terms, where being locked in while the market falls has a real cost.

Your fixed contract rate Utility default rate Where the fixed rate is ahead

Illustrative. It shows how the two rate types behave — the default rate resets on a schedule, a fixed rate does not — rather than any specific quote. Note the first six months: locking in is not always cheaper on day one. The case for it is the resets you avoid later.

Fixed vs. variable

Why the reset schedule matters here.

Florida has NOT deregulated retail electricity — no supplier can sell you power here. Natural gas transportation service is open to commercial and industrial accounts, which is where savings are available.

A fixed contract holds one number straight through those resets. That is what you are actually buying — not a lower rate on day one, but the resets you never feel.
