GCEC can require additional deposit funds if the member's account is disconnected for nonpayment. This charge will be placed on the member's account and must be paid by the due date of the next bill or service will be disconnected.
If an account is closed, the deposit plus interest will be credited toward the final bill. If monies are still left, a refund will be made to the member. If a balance remains on the account, a refund will be made to the member. If a balance remains unpaid on the account after the deposit is applied, GCEC can begin collection activities including 30, 60 or 90 day notices, door hanger, referral to the consumer’s credit file, referral a third-party collection agency, or legal action.
