Payment of Your Bill

Through the Mail

A pre-addressed return envelope is enclosed with the bill. Depending on the type of account, a portion of your bill (this is noted on your billing) should be sent along with your payment to ensure proper credit on the account. Payments sent through the mail should be made with a check or money order.

Please DO NOT send cash in the mail . No post-dated checks will be accepted.

Using Electronic Transfer

If your bank is a member of the Automatic Clearing House (ACH) you can have your electric bill automatically deducted from your checking account. An electronic transfer will allow you the freedom and convenience of not having to mail in a check each month. You may sign up at the local Cooperative office for this service.

Late Payments
A bill is considered past due if it is not paid by the date printed on the bill. If payment is not received by the next billing date, a reminder/disconnect notice is mailed out for the first two times in a one year period. Within a one year period, should a third notice have to be mailed, a disconnect notice will be sent and $4.00 or 3.75% of the past due balance, whichever is greater, will be added to the bill. If payment is not received by the due date on the disconnect notice, the service will be terminated. Additional charges could be required to restore service.

Moving?
When moving, you are responsible for the electric usage until the Cooperative is contacted and disconnect arrangements have been made. Please provide us with a forwarding address so we can send you the final bill. We ask that you keep a current address on file with us to assure that we may retire your patronage and mail capital credit checks to you in future years.
