Find out about programs such as Bank Draft that automatically deducts your payment from your checking or savings account and Levelized Billing that makes the amount of those monthly electric bills more predictable (listed under Payment Options).

    Advance Pay FAQ (3)

    a

    Is Advance Pay right for me?

    Would it be easier for you to make weekly or biweekly payments rather than one large payment each month? If so, Advance Pay might be for you! Members interested in monitoring and lowering electricity use could benefit, too.

    Category: Advance Pay FAQ
    a

    What is Advance Pay?

    Advance Pay is a pre-pay plan that lets you pay when you want, in the amounts you want. Instead of receiving a paper bill each month, energy use is calculated daily. Advance Pay members never pay a late charge, disconnect fees or reconnect fees.

    Category: Advance Pay FAQ
    a

    What if my Advance Pay account runs low?

    You can set up notifications by e-mail or text to notify you of a low balance, allowing time to buy power. If you do not purchase more, the meter will stop until funds are applied to your account.

    Making a payment is easy, even on weekends and holidays! Once payment is received, your power will reconnect almost immediately.

    What is Levelized Billing and how do I sign up?

    Each monthly bill is the rolling average of your electric usage for the most recent 12 months. In order to have your account placed on a levelized budget billing, you need to be a member of YEC at your current residence for one year, have maintained good credit (as defined by YEC), have a zero balance, and pay your bill by the original due date each month. There is no service charge or monthly fee, so call us if you want to level it out!
