As utility bill balances mount during the pandemic, the time you have to pay before you face the possibility of shutoff is narrowing.
New Jersey s utilities are calling on customers who are behind on their bills to contact them to make a payment arrangement or to find assistance to help pay before the deadline.
“We understand many customers are in a difficult financial situation because of the pandemic,” said James V. Fakult, president of JCP&L, in a statement. “Customers who have lost income during this crisis may be eligible for assistance that was unavailable to them before.”

COVID-19 has led to financial hardship for many businesses. PSE&G is committed to supporting their customers as we all move forward and recover together from this pandemic and its impact on our economy.
In recognition of the challenges faced by PSE&G’s business customers, the utility voluntarily suspended shut-off of service for nonpayment in March 2020. PSE&G was the only utility in New Jersey that extended the state-issued moratorium on shut-offs to business customers, providing relief at that critical time for businesses. The utility is now preparing to resume normal collection activity, including suspension of service where necessary.
