How do I get the Cheapest Gas South Gas Rate?
We've created a step by step guide to help you get the cheapest Gas South Rate.
'Tis the season to grab savings on long term natural gas plans. Winter's here but the cold temps aren't. So shop these plans now to lock in the cheapest rate before it's too late!
Jack Frost is a-nipping. But there is still time to snag the cheapest natural gas rate. However, you may want to be hasty about it. According to the EIA, wholesale monthly prices hit a low of $1.49 per MMBtu in March and climbed to $2.12 per MMBtu in November. So far in December, daily wholesale prices have hit high as $3.09 per MMBtu. The steady increases in wholesale prices are likely due to winter weather arriving throughout the country. Furthermore, with wholesale rates going up, long term gas rates may not stay low for too much longer.
Best Long Term Natural Gas Rates
These four long term natural gas plans have some of the best rates around. Get one now before winter rates go up!
Firstly, it’s the Constellation 24 month Home Natural Gas plan at $0.579 per therm. It’s the cheapest of the 24 month plans. There is also a $150 ETF and $7.95 monthly charge.
Secondly is the Xoom Energy SureLock 24 plan at $0.619 per therm. It has a pricier rate but has a lower monthly charge at $5.85. Make sure you don’t cancel early, or you face a $200 ETF.
Next is the Georgia Natural Gas® 24 Month Fixed plan at $0.659 per therm. Note well, this rate is a $0.10 discount for new customers only. The ETF starts at $200 in the first six months and drops by $50 each six month period. The monthly charge is $6.99-$9.99.
Finally, it’s the Gas South Fixed 24 Month plan at $0.690 per therm. Though it has the highest rate, it’s the only plan that guarantees no deposit for signing up -- which can be a big savings. Another bonus is a $5 credit for the first 10 months. There is a $150 ETF and $6.95-$9.95 monthly charge.
Wrap Up a Long Term Rate for the Holidays
Although winters in Atlanta are typically mild, a mighty cold snap that hits anywhere else in the country can affect our natural gas rates, too. It’s smart to lock in a cheap rate before winter chills and volatility take hold of natural gas prices. So, grab your long term plan today at https://www.georgiagassavings.com.
It's confusing! A cheap intro rate costs less but isn't always the best long-term deal. Learn how to compare intro and fixed rate gas plans so you can avoid paying too much on your natural gas bills this winter.
Come the holiday season, we tend to spend more than our typical monthly budget. That makes it even more important to save a little on utility bills like natural gas in GA. Before rates go up in winter with higher demand, now it’s a great time to snag a deal with a new gas plan. Today, the cheapest options are intro rates for variable plans. But is this a smart move? Let’s compare intro rates to fixed to help you choose the right plan.
Comparing Costs of Intro Rates and Fixed
This month, the cheapest rate belongs to a variable rate plan with an intro rate. Intro rates can be super low and appealing, but only last a month or two. After that, rates jump up to the natural gas provider’s standard variable rate. The lowest rate this month belongs to the Gas South Acquisition Variable plan at $0.390 per therm. The standard variable rate for Gas South this month is $1.99 per therm.
On the other hand, fixed rates remain constant throughout the entire term. This month the cheapest fixed rate plan is the Scana Energy 18 Month plan at $0.479 per therm.
It’s easy to look at these numbers and say the intro rate is cheaper and saves more money. However, what if you need a plan for three months? According to the PSC, the average residential customer uses about 51 therms per month. With that estimate, the cheapest intro rate plan costs $19.89 for the first month plus $202.98 for the second and third month. This comes to a total of $222.87 just for the gas you use. Over three months, the cheapest fixed rate plan costs a total of $73.29. That’s a savings of nearly $150.
When Intro Rates Can Be Good Deals
Because standard variable rates are often so much higher than fixed rates, a variable rate plan will almost never save you money after the first month. However, in some situations an intro rate can be a good deal. Here are a few examples of smart times to grab a cheap intro rate:
You only need a plan for a month or two.
It’s early fall or spring and you are waiting for fixed rates to drop.
You may need to cancel your plan and don’t want to pay an early termination fee.
You need to save as much money as possible and expect to sign up for a fixed rate in the next month.
In these scenarios, the intro rate will save you money. But you should have a plan to switch to a fixed rate, otherwise bills will start adding up quickly as the standard variable rate kicks in.
One More Note on Variable Rates
If you choose to take advantage of a cheap intro rate this month, make sure you understand the terms of the plan to avoid overpaying for your natural gas. This goes for fixed rate natural gas plans, too! You may think you have avoided those high standard variable rates with a fixed rate plan. However, many fixed plans automatically switch to a standard variable rate plan at the end of their terms. So, mark your calendars to start shopping for a new plan in the last month of your contract.
