Provider-specific findings

Delinquency research for this provider

The notes below may document a rule or explain a specific public-information limit. Any active notice and direct provider confirmation remain controlling.

Grace period
One day after the due date before a 1% delinquency fee applies; a $15 plus tax fee is assessed 36 days after the due date.
Late-fee rules
A 1% delinquency fee applies to all amounts past due one day after the due date. At 36 days past due, a $15 plus tax delinquency fee is added and a Service Suspension Notice is mailed.
Shut-off timeline
Service discontinues when payment is 50 days past due. The 36-day $15-plus-tax fee and mailed Service Suspension Notice precede the suspension; arrangements should be made through Customer Services before interruption.
Warning and notice protocol
A Service Suspension Notice is mailed at 36 days past due. No separate colored mailer, automated-call, or door-hanger sequence was identified.
Reconnection costs
The reviewed Tempe page states that after payment a delinquent account may be reinstated the next business day but does not expose a current standard/after-hours reconnection amount. Unauthorized meter reactivation incurs $100 plus tax tampering fee.
