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.
- Shut-off timeline
- The reviewed official material does not publish an exact day-by-day calendar. A current utility FAQ states that a missing payment can lead to disconnection by the second bill, while the payment page states that a disconnected or pending-disconnection account paid before 5:00 p.m. Monday through Friday can be restored the same day; the exact progression is account- and notice-dependent.
- Warning and notice protocol
- The company’s public pages do not specify a complete legal-notice sequence such as exact mailer color, automated-call count, SMS sequence, or door hanger. The bill and delinquency notices govern the account-specific warning process; customers facing pending disconnection should contact customer service before the cutoff and retain payment confirmation.
- Reconnection costs
- The Louisiana regulatory tariff lists a $50 reconnection charge after nonpayment, failure to deposit, or fraud and $100 when reconnection is requested after business hours or on weekends. The current FAQ says a qualifying payment received before 5:00 p.m. Monday through Friday is normally restored the same day by 7:00 p.m.; after-hours arrangements require the after-hours fee plus all outstanding charges.
