Our BudgetWise Programs offer two ways you can even out fluctuations in your monthly utility bills.
Budget Billing: This is our traditional program. You pay the same amount every month. The amount due is the average of your monthly bills for the most recent July through May. In June you will settle up with a credit if you used less than the estimated amount of electricity, or a balance due if you used more. We will periodically evaluate the account and may apply a one-time adjustment to keep you from having an excessive settlement amount.
Average Billing: This is a new program. Your bill will reflect the average of your most recent 12 monthly billable amounts, rounded to the nearest $5 increment. The amount due may fluctuate month-to-month based on your 12-month rolling average use of electricity. You won't face a settlement month each year, the 12-months just continues forward.
If either option interests you, email us at info@menard.com with your account number and the BudgetWise option you are interested in, or call the office at 800-872-1203.
