You are not receiving your e-Bill email notifications letting me know your bill is available. Do you know why?
This primarily occurs for one of two reasons: Spam or an incorrect email address. If you didn't change your email address, we recommend that you check your email spam folder. Occasionally, messages are flagged as spam by email service providers. By adding us to your address book, you can avoid this from happening in the future. Please check your email program for more details about managing spam.

To verify your email address is correct:
  1. Login to e-Bill
  2. Your email address is found in the top-right corner of the screen. If it is incorrect, click on the link labeled "Update Your e-Bill E-mail Address".

You were enrolled in Automatic Payment, and recently signed up for e-Bill. Why was your last payment not deducted from your account?
Because e-Bill offers an automatic payment option, you were removed from the utility Automatic Payment plan. This is to ensure that duplicate payments are not deducted from your account. If you'd like to continue making automatic payments through e-Bill, simply select the automatic payments option found under "Worry-free Options." You will then need to re-enter your financial information.

Why can't you schedule an e-Bill payment on your due date?
We're sorry, but our e-Bill application does not allow for the scheduling of same-day payments in order to allow for the necessary processing time. If you want your bill to be paid on your due date, you will need to schedule it up to two business days in advance.
