Are you concerned about paying your bill or getting disconnected?
If you are having difficulty paying an energy bill, or if your bill is overdue and/or you have received a reminder notice, you should contact your provider immediately to discuss your payment options. Don’t ignore the notice.
You may also need to consider contacting a welfare agency and seeking the advice of a financial counsellor who can provide you with general advice and, if necessary, can prepare a budget to assist you in your negotiations with your provider.
