YSK: Call Your Utility Companies to See If You Have Any Credits

[Michael Ablan]

Hey Guys,

So I was setting up my National grid (electric and gas) online account a few days ago and had to call in to get my account numbers.  After the customer service rep got into my file and gave me what I needed, she pointed out that I had a $24 credit on one of my accounts.  She then asked if I'd like it applied to any of my current balances.   I would have never known I had that credit unless I had called in because NG certainly wasn't going to go out of their way to inform me.  

So, if you have time, give your main utility company a ring and see if you have any credits floating around on any old or existing account.  You may be pleasantly surprised.  

Have a great day everyone!
