DEPOSITS
United REMC typically requires a deposit on residential services. However, that can be waived in lieu of a favorable credit rating from one or more sources, depending on if you’re a new or existing customer.

   United REMC determines the credit risk of a new customer primarily by a consumer reporting agency (CRA), such as Equifax, TransUnion, or Experian. The amount of the deposit will be determined based on the findings from the CRA.  A low-risk rating will result in no deposit, a moderate risk requires a $175 deposit, and a high risk requires a deposit of $250.

   Deposits may be required for existing customers if they receive two (2) disconnect notices for two (2) consecutive months; a customers receives disconnect notices for any three (3) months within the preceding 12 months; or electric service has been disconnected for non-payment.  The deposit may amount to one-sixth the annual billings, and that amount is subject to adjustment based on actual billed changes to the customer.

    United REMC is not required to provide electric service to an applicant who owes the cooperative for outstanding bills for service to a prior account under the applicant’s name.
United REMC may provide service once the applicant pays the outstanding bill in full.

   The deposit is credited back to the consumer’s account if they have paid 10 out of 12 months with no late payment. The deposit must be paid before service can be provided.

"INSUFFICIENT FUNDS" CHECK CHARGE:
In the event that the Corporation is required to reimburse the bank for an "insufficient funds" check, check deposited in the Corporation which was received by the Corporation in payment of a billing by a member, a charge of $25.00 must be paid for this charge added to the amount due the Corporation by said member which shall be in addition to any other charges assessed by this rate schedule.

METERING VOLTAGE:
The Corporation reserves the right to meter consumer's requirements in the most practical manner either at secondary or primary distribution voltage.

TYPE OF SERVICE - AVAILABILITY OF SINGLE AND THREE-PHASE SERVICE:
Normally, only single-phase service is available by the Corporation, and all motors shall be for single-phase operation. Service will not be furnished where individual single-phase motors in excess of 10 horsepower are installed, except where permission is granted by the Corporation.

The Corporation will furnish three-phase service (normally, where motors larger than 10 horsepower are required) only where such service is already available immediately adjacent to consumer's property, and only where it is practical and economical to furnish three-phase service after giving consideration to the investment required and probable use of three-phase service member. Where three-phase service is supplied, all service, both single and three-phase, will be billed under the Corporation's applicable schedule for three-phase service.

TEMPORARY SERVICE:
Temporary service shall be supplied in accordance with the foregoing rates, except that the consumer shall pay, in addition to the foregoing charges, the total cost of connecting and disconnecting the service less the value of the material returned to stock. A deposit in advance may be required for the estimated bill for service and the cost of connection and disconnection of service.

OPERATION RULES AND REGULATIONS:
All conditions of service in connection with this schedule must comply with the general rules and regulations of the Corporation and as or may be amended from time to time by the Board of Directors.
