Equal Billing Plan
Enjoy the benefits of the Equal Billing Plan
The four winter months account for more than half of your annual natural gas costs. With our Equal Billing Plan you can reduce the impact of high winter heating bills by distributing your annual cost evenly throughout the year.
How does it work?
We
determine your total natural gas usage for the previous year and use
it to calculate your estimated annual cost for the upcoming year using
current rates. Then we spread that total equally over 11 monthly
instalments. In the twelfth month we’ll
credit or debit your account for any difference between the amount you’ve
paid and the gas you’ve used.
Each month your bill will show the cost of the gas you’ve used (see Total charges to date in the example at right), how much you’ve been billed, and your plan balance.
We’ll review your account throughout the year and adjust your monthly instalment if you have been paying too much or too little.
The plan begins in September and runs through July each year, with August being the “true-up” month. If you enrol in the plan between September and February, it will begin with your next bill. If you enroll between March and August the plan will begin the following September.
Please note that if you cancel the Equal Billing Plan before August true up or if you move from your residence, the plan will be automatically trued up at that point and any credit or debit balance will be applied to your account.
Each August, we'll review your gas usage for the previous year to determine your new instalment amount for the coming plan year. You'll automatically be re-enrolled in the plan each September.
