What Selectra's Energy Expert Has To Say About PrepayPower

Cormac, our energy expert and chief content editor here at Selectra.ie, specialises in the Irish energy market and has an in-depth knowledge of each electricity provider operating in the market including their pros, their cons, and what customers should be aware of when thinking of switching electricity provider.

  • Unit rates
  • Standing charges and other fees
  • Customer care and contact
  • Range of offers and home services

When it comes to PrepayPower, this is what he has to say:

PrepayPower's main advantage is the complete control it gives customers over their energy spending through a pay-as-you-go system, allowing for better budgeting and real-time usage tracking. However, customers considering switching to a PAYG supplier should bear in mind the higher electricity rates and daily charges, as well as the inconvenience of frequent top-ups and the risk of disconnection if credit runs low.

Strengths and Weaknesses of PrepayPower
Strengths of PrepayPower
  • Ireland's only dedicated PAYG electricity and gas supplier.
  • Provides tools, such as mobile apps, that allow customers to track their energy consumption in real-time.
  • The prepayment system eliminates the need for monthly or bi-monthly bills, simplifying household finances.

 

Weaknesses of PrepayPower
  • Prepay electricity, in general, can be more expensive due to higher standard unit rates and additional daily charges for the prepayment meter itself.
  • If credit is not maintained, there's a risk of disconnection, which can be particularly problematic for vulnerable customers.
  • Customers have reported issues with trying to switch away from PAYG suppliers.

Here at Selectra, we are constantly comparing and reviewing supplier's rates and tariffs to make sure you are as up-to-date as possible on the latest offers. In doing so, we aim to try and save you as much possible on your annual electricty bills

In the case of PrepayPower, this is our review of their current rates and tariffs:

PrepayPower operates on a unique 'pay-as-you-go' model, allowing customers to have full control over their gas and electricity spending. 

While this provides a great way to manage and budget energy usage by availing of their customer app, the unit rates can sometimes be higher compared to traditional bill-pay plans. 

This provider can be a good fit for those who want to avoid monthly bills and prevent energy debt.

What Do Customers Have To Say About PrepayPower on Google and Trustpilot?

Review platforms such as Selectra, Google and Trustpilot reviews offer a direct look at what real customers think of an energy provider.

While many people are familiar with these platforms for local businesses or products, their role is just as important in the utility sector. These reviews provide unfiltered insights into things like customer service, billing accuracy, and how they handle customer complaints.

By comparing the scores on these two major sites, you can get a balanced picture of customer satisfaction and help decide if a provider's reputation matches its promises.

The table below offers an overview of the average rating for PrepayPower based on customers opinions from popular review websites.

Online Reviews for PrepayPower
Platform Rating Number of Reviews
Trustpilot 4.8 out of 5 9542
Google 4.6 out of 5 4562
Be Careful with Review Websites

While review websites like Google and Trustpilot can be useful tools, they are often used as a venting platform for unhappy customers which may lead to the supplier having a worse rating. This rating, therefore, may not be a true reflection of the average customer experience, but rather that of a vocal minority.

Reviews of PrepayPower from Google

Google reviews offer valuable real world experiences and quick insights, helping customers make informed decisions about a business.

However, they come with downsides, as they can be heavily influenced by fake, biased, or unhelpful reviews. Ultimately, while they are a useful tool, customers should approach them with a critical eye, as a business's public rating may not always reflect the full reality.

In 2025, PrepayPower has a rating of 4.6 out of 5. Customers who left reviews tended to focus on their experience with customer service, both positive and negative, along with complaints about billing issues. Others praised the provider for their pricing competitiveness.

Reviews of PrepayPower from Trustpilot

Trustpilot has become a key indicator of customer satisfaction, offering an independent platform for consumers to share their experiences.

For electricity providers, a high Trustpilot score can be a sign of quality service and reliability, while a low score often highlights issues with billing, customer support, or technical issues.

In 2025, has a rating of 4.8 out of 5 on the platform. Negative reviews from customers were directed towards issues with billing and pricing along with complaints about customer service. There were positive reviews where customers highlighted the reliability of the provider along with their own positive, personal experiences with customer service.

What Does the CRU Have to Say About PrepayPower?

The Commission for Regulation of Utilities (CRU) in Ireland does not publish "reviews" of providers in the same way as consumer website such as Trustpilot or Google do.

Instead, its public reports and publications are more focused on its regulatory and enforcement activities.

The CRU publishes reports that contain data on customer complaints. These reports often show which providers: 

  • Gave the most complaints escalated to the CRU
  • The types of issues customers are facing

The Customer Care Team Annual Report 2024 provides a comparative look at how different providers are performing in customer service and complaint resolution over the last 12 months

In the case of PrepayPower, this is what the CRU report had to say

In 2024, PrepayPower's customer contacts decreased slightly to 121, down from 127 in 2023. The report notes that contact cases decreased for most suppliers overall. 

How Do I Switch to PrepayPower?

Given PrepayPower's average rating of 4.7 out of 5 on 2 platforms, you might be considering switching to the energy provider.

Switching electricity providers is a straightforward process. Here are the most essential steps:

  1. Gather Your Information: Find a recent electricity bill to get your Meter Point Reference Number (MPRN) and your annual energy usage.
  2. Compare Tariffs: Compare tariffs and price plans from PrepayPower to find the best deal. Look at the price per unit, contract length, and any exit fees.
  3. Start the Switch: Once you've chosen the plan you want, you can start the switch on PrepayPower's website or by phone. They will handle all the paperwork with your old supplier.
  4. Finalise the Switch: On the day of the switch, take a final meter reading and provide it to PrepayPower. They will use this reading to generate your final bill from your old provider.
