Budget Payment Plan If youre like most
people, your electric bill
varies from season to
season. Sometimes its
higher; sometimes its
lower. You can help level
out these ups and downs by
paying the Budget Amount
shown on your monthly
statement. We determine
the Budget Amount by
calculating your average
past and present electric
use.
Double Notice
Protection for Overdue
Bills
This plan helps
prevent any mix-ups if you
happen to misplace or
forget an electric bill or
disconnect notice. If
youve signed up for
this plan and are in
danger of having your
electric service turned
off because of non-payment
of a bill, well send a
payment reminder to you
and also to any other
person you designate a
friend, neighbor,
relative, or even a member
of the clergy. That person
is not obligated to pay
your electric bill for
you. He or she simply can
provide a friendly
reminder, to help make
sure that any
inconvenience is avoided.
Likewise, you can
become a recognized
"third party"
for someone else. All you
need is his or her written
consent.

Certificates
Is there someone on
your gift list who is
