Let’s Talk About Our Equal Payment Plan ... A Tailor Made Solution 17 To Budget Problems : (iol ©jr v ForNIPSCOGas and/br Electric Customers
The best way to smooth out those high winter gas bills and those summer electric airconditioning bills is to take advantage of NIPSCO’s Equal Payment Plan. It's convenient, and a big help in planning your budget. You pay the same amount for gas and electric service each month throughout the year. Here’s How The Plan Works Normally, the Equal Payment Plan runs from June through May; how ever, it can be started at any time. We determine from our records what you have used in the past and. from that experience, estimate what you can be expected to use during the coming year. The annual cost is then calculated and divided into 12 equal monthly payments. As your meters are read, the amount of energy actually used and the cost appears on your bill. In this way. you can keep track of your actual costs: however, you pay only the budgeted amount. If. for some reason, your meter readings are estimated, you pay only for what you have used, based on actual meter readings, at the end of the Equal Payment Plan year. Any difference between what has been paid and the total amount due at the end of budget period —based on actual meter readings—is reflected in

the May service bill or in the final bill, if service is terminated before the end of the budget year. If you have overpaid the amount actually due. a refund is automatically sent to you. If you have underpaid, the balance is shown on the May service bill. No Surprises You receive a bill for the same amount each month, so that you can plan your budget accordingly. And. with the Equal Payment Plan, there are no deposits required and no late payment charges, so it may even save you money. Your Account is Reviewed Regularly We review your budget account twice each year, checking it against increases in energy costs, addition or discontinuation of large use appliances, and whether the amount budgeted is in line with actual usage and costs. If q change in the budgeted amount is indicated, we notify you. REMEMBER YOU PAY ONLY FOR THE ENERGY YOU USE DURING THE BUDGET YEAR; NO MORE. NO LESS. Call or stop in at your local NIPSCO office for more details about our Equal PaymentJ’lan. Our customer service representatives will be happy to explain it to you and make all the arrangements for you to join, if you desire to do so.
