Struggling to Manage Your Bills? We Can Help!

Budget Plans

Unitil’s budget billing programs can help take the surprise out of month-to-month bills. By looking at a previous year’s usage, we can set up a plan that offers a fixed amount to pay each month based on an estimate for the year. Take the cost spikes out of the heating season with this program.

Was Your Service Disconnected for Non-Pay?

If your required payment is received by 3pm, your service will be reconnected the same day.  Please note, due to the timing of when some payments are processed, if you make a payment using one of our automated systems or at a Western Union location, you should also contact our Credit Department to let us know you have made your payment. Please call us toll-free at 888-301-7700 800-852-3339 (Capital-area electric), 800-582-7276 (Seacoast-area electric) or 866-933-3820 (Gas)866-822-3821 and ask for the Credit Department. 

If your service was disconnected for non-payment between April 15th and October 15th and you are still without service at that location, your service may be restored if you pay a reasonable amount of your past due balance and set a payment arrangement for the balance. 

Please call us with additional questions.
