https://www.yorkelectric.net/wp-content/uploads/Payment_options_276725680_1080x1080_F30.mp4

Enjoy these no guess, no stress programs – and take charge of your free time:

  • YEC Mobile Apps

  • Levelized Billing
    We can average your monthly electric bill into a more predictable amount.

    Forget writing and mailing checks. Bank Draft automatically deducts the amount of your bill from your checking account each month. Combine Bank Draft with Levelized Billing to take the hassle out of bill-paying and budgeting.
YEC members will no longer be able to pay at the remote pay station in Comporium’s office on Cherry Road after June 30, 2021.

Consider our other easy payment options:

  • CheckOut With PayGo!PayGo

  • Walmart– you may now pay your bill at any Walmart across the country.
    • Bring your current YEC bill or bill stub to the customer service counter and pay with cash or a PIN-based debit card.

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!

What is third party notification?

This free service allows you to select a designated person that we can contact when your account goes past due. A person may request to be a designated third-party, but must have the account holder’s permission. Both the member and this person will be notified by phone or mail that the bill is past due. You can sign up to receive this service by filling out the form and returning it to our office. You may also contact member services at 803-684-4248.
