Program Overview:

  • Each monthly payment made towards current charges will result in the forgiveness of 1/12 of the customer's past-due balance.
  • Can miss up to two payments if the bill is made up on the next billing due date.
  • Two missed payments in a row will remove the customer from AMP.
  • Certain types of assistance, like financial assistance through the Low-Income Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP), cannot be used to pay past-due balances.
