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
- Payment is due 20 days from the original monthly billing date; a total past-due balance is subject to a late charge on the delinquent date.
- Late-fee rules
- The late-payment charge is the greater of $7.50 or 5% of the total outstanding account balance on the delinquent date. Returned checks or other bank-returned items incur a $35 charge, and the utility may require cash or money order for 12 months after a return.
- Shut-off timeline
- Azusa sends regular monthly bills, then provides at least one past-due notice and one disconnection notice before terminating service. Customers may request a payment extension before the shutoff date; the City says extensions are granted once every six months and may hold service for up to one week after the scheduled shutoff date.
- Warning and notice protocol
- The City states that delinquent customers receive advance disconnection notice with regular monthly billing, at least one past-due notice, and at least one disconnection notice. Customers should call 626-812-5225 before the shutoff date to request an arrangement; scammers claiming immediate one-hour shutoff are not legitimate City practice.
- Reconnection costs
- The reviewed 2026 rules say after-hours reconnection for nonpayment is provided only Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, with a service charge assessed; the current public excerpt does not expose the regular-hours and after-hours dollar amounts.
