Billing Procedures

Bills are due and payable upon presentation and will be considered past due if not paid within 16 days from the date of the current bill.

Notice of Delinquency / Termination

Customer statements are delivered monthly. Any account that isn't paid by the due date listed on the billing statement will receive a late notice. This late notice gives the customer a grace period of 7 days to pay before a 3% late fee charge is assessed. The late notice will have a due date and a statement stating that if full payment or a payment arrangement is not received in our office by 5:00 p.m. on the listed due date, services are considered terminated. All past due amounts plus an applicable deposit will be required. An out-for-shutoff fee of $40.00 will be billed on the next billing statement.

Returned payments must be paid within 7 days after notification or services will be terminated. Payments must be made in cash, by cashier check/money order, or by credit card. All returned payments will have a $20.00 returned fee applied.
