Avoiding a Shut-off
Avoiding a Shut-off
We understand the thought of having your natural gas or electricity shut off is stressful. But even if you have a shut-off notice, there are steps you can take to avoid shut-off.If your landlord is responsible for the energy service bills for multiple families (three families or more), each unit will be notified of a pending service interruption 30 days in advance.
If you receive a shut-off notice, set up a plan to pay online, contact us before it expires to pay the bill, or enter into a payment arrangement. Under that payment arrangement:
- You make a down payment on what you owe and pay the balance in installments.
- Failure to meet the terms outlined in your arrangement can result in your service being interrupted.
- The energy service provider can choose not to enter into a payment arrangement with you if one is in progress or if you didn’t keep the terms of a previous arrangement.
- By signing, you give up your right to go before a Utility Hearing Officer.
