Help for Paying Your Electric Bills
A few extra days can make the difference between good credit and bad. When
you need just a bit more time to pay your bill, there's help.
We understand that sometimes your paydays and bill due dates do not match up,
and you need a few extra days to pay your utility bill. We will work with you on payment options that can help you fix things now, and keep them fixed in
the future.
