No Deposit Electricity in Midland TX — How It Works

The number one reason Midland residents switch to prepaid electricity is the zero-deposit requirement. Here's what that means for you.

💰 Traditional Providers Require Deposits

Most electric companies in Midland run a credit check and require a security deposit — typically $150 to $300 — before they'll turn your power on. That's money you might not have on move-in day, especially when you're already covering first month's rent and other costs.

✅ Prepaid = Zero Deposit, Zero Credit Check

With prepaid electricity in Midland, there is no deposit period. The $20–$40 you put in to start service IS your first payment toward actual electricity usage — not a deposit held by the company. Your money goes straight to powering your home.

🔄 Previous Provider Debt? No Problem

Many Midland residents need a new electric provider because they owe a balance to a previous company. Traditional providers won't take you until that debt is cleared. Prepaid electricity doesn't look at that — you qualify regardless of past utility debt.

📊 Bad or No Credit? You Still Qualify

No credit score? Bad credit? New to the country? None of it matters with prepaid electricity. There's no credit inquiry, no score minimum, and no denial based on financial history. Every Midland resident qualifies.

$0 Security deposit required to start service in Midland TX

Your $20 minimum starting payment goes directly toward electricity — not held as a deposit.

Who Qualifies

  • ✅ Renters and homeowners
  • ✅ Mobile home and trailer residents
  • ✅ People with bad or no credit
  • ✅ Customers with past utility debt
  • ✅ New Midland residents
  • ✅ Oil field workers on short-term stays
  • ✅ Students and young professionals
  • ✅ Families managing tight budgets

Prepaid Electricity in Midland TX — FAQ

The most common questions from Midland residents about prepaid and no-deposit electricity.

What is the cheapest electric company in Midland TX?
Because Midland is in a deregulated electricity market, rates vary by provider and plan. Prepaid electricity plans eliminate the deposit requirement (which can be $100–$300 at traditional providers) and let you pay only for what you use, making them among the most affordable options in Midland. Compare current Midland rates here.
Can I get same day electricity in Midland TX?
Yes. Same day electricity service is available in all Midland TX zip codes including 79701, 79702, 79703, 79704, 79705, 79706, and 79707. Enroll before 5:00 PM on a business day and Oncor Electric Delivery can have your service active the same day for most residential addresses.
Do I need a credit check for electricity in Midland?
Not with prepaid electricity. Traditional Midland electric companies run a credit check and may require a deposit based on your score. Prepaid electricity requires no credit check whatsoever — your credit score, credit history, and past utility debt are completely irrelevant.
What electric companies serve Midland TX?
Midland is served by Oncor Electric Delivery as the utility. You separately choose a retail electricity provider — like a prepaid electricity company — that sells you the actual power. Because Midland is deregulated, you have multiple provider options. Prepaid providers give you more flexibility and better accessibility than traditional options.
How much does it cost to start prepaid electricity in Midland?
You can start prepaid electricity service in Midland TX for as little as $20–$40. This is your initial payment toward actual electricity usage — not a deposit. There are no setup fees, no security deposits, and no hidden charges. View current starting rates.
Does prepaid electricity work for mobile homes in Midland?
Absolutely. Prepaid electricity works for any residential premise on the Oncor grid in Midland, including mobile homes and trailers. Zip codes 79703 and 79706 have significant mobile home communities and we serve them all. Same rates, same same-day availability, same zero-deposit requirement.
Is there a contract for prepaid electricity in Midland?
No contract is required for prepaid electricity plans. You pay as you go and can stop service at any time without cancellation fees. If you prefer a fixed-rate plan with a contract, term options from 6 to 36 months are also available.
Can I get prepaid electricity if I owe a previous provider?
Yes. Outstanding debt with a previous electricity provider is one of the most common reasons Midland residents need a new option. Traditional companies often refuse service until prior debt is cleared. Prepaid electricity has no such requirement — you can start fresh today regardless of what you owe elsewhere.
How does prepaid electricity compare to Odessa?
Both Midland and Odessa are served by Oncor Electric Delivery and have access to the same prepaid electricity plans. The rates, deposit requirements (zero), and service process are identical. We serve the entire Midland-Odessa metro area with the same great no-deposit, no-credit-check prepaid electricity service. Learn more about prepaid electricity in Odessa TX.
