Shut Off and Reconnect Process

Avoid termination or get reconnected

Avoid shut off

If you received a termination notice, make a payment on your account as soon as possible to avoid shut off. You can avoid termination if we receive the past due amount on your account or proof of payment by 10 p.m. on the day before your scheduled shut off date.

Medical certifications

We can delay shut off for up to 30 days if a licensed medical professional completes a form stating that shutting off your service would be hazardous to the health and safety of a permanent resident of your home.

Call us at 1-800-543-8911 to learn more.


Reconnection process

If your service has already been shut off for nonpayment, you need to take a few steps to receive service again:

  1. You will be required to pay the full past due balance on your account, a reconnection fee and a security deposit if we do not already have one for your account.
  2. You must ensure safe conditions in and around your home for our technician to reconnect your service, including securing animals away from our technician.
  3. An adult over the age of 18 must be present at the time of your reconnection.

Once you have paid the full required amount or can provide proof of payment, call us at 1-800-543-8911 to schedule your reconnection.
