Trying to set an online payment

Trying to set an online payment, where was this security when I opened my bill a few months ago and it was $19000! In a regular size home. Trying to set up online payments and having to jump through hoops, only to have it tell me that it can’t be processed right now. Bet if it was a month late, they’d give a damn! Garbage company, but it’s what we’re stuck with. Hopefully someone better comes along and buys them out!

Terrible company

Terrible company! i have lived all over this country and no power company is great but at least more managable. FPL is the most arrogant expensive mistake prone company i ever had to deal with. they in large part influenced my decision to sell my home in Florida. their rates go up constantly they do not answer the phone and make it difficult to sort out the messes and costs they charge for. their webpage is a disaster zone. they are almost always wrong on the use page. it does not make sense nor does it coincide with your usage. im glad i am free of them!!
