Transferring apartments is proving to be more difficult than I expected.
After several tries, we finally got the correct lease from my apartment building.
The next step is transferring utilities, such as electricity. (Texas forces you to pick your own power company, which I still think is strange.)
I now have to find a new energy provider, because I just got fired by my current energy company.
This was the phone call earlier today:
Me: “Hi. I’m moving to a new unit in the same building and would like to transfer my energy plan.”
Energy company: “Is this it a new part of the building?”
Me: “…no…”
Energy company: “We can’t find it in the system, so we are canceling your plan since we can’t provide service to your new unit.”
Me: “So you’re telling me that you can provide service to my current unit, but not to an apartment 50 feet away in the same building?”
Energy company: “Yep. That’s right. Nice knowing you. Toodles!“
