How the rate works:
If qualified, you'll receive a fixed daily price based on your past and projected electricity usage which includes a small premium to guarantee the amount over the annual term.
Once signed up, you can deposit funds into your Pay by Day account and then your fixed amount is deducted daily.
We will notify you to make a deposit if the funds in your account are low. If your balance reaches zero, we will alert you that service will be turned off unless funds are added. If disconnected, a minimum of five dollars ($5) positive balance is required to reconnect service.
You will receive a new Pay by Day offer annually that is updated to reflect your most recent usage.
