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
- Net bill applies through the due date shown on the bill; the exact number of grace days is not published.
- Late-fee rules
- Late fee is 10% of the gross bill amount. A $60 penalty is added when nonpayment requires disconnection; a returned payment incurs $17, and a returned payment on a disconnected account adds another $60 late fee.
- Shut-off timeline
- The account is net through the printed due date; after the due date the 10% gross-bill late fee applies. If service is disconnected for nonpayment, all balances, late fees and the $60 penalty must be paid before restoration.
- Warning and notice protocol
- South Blount sends courtesy automated phone calls for past-due bills but warns that these calls never request payment or personal/card information. The reviewed page does not specify additional mailer, text or door-hanger steps.
- Reconnection costs
- All outstanding balances, late fees and the $60 disconnection penalty must be paid. Payment received by 3:30 p.m. can be restored that day; otherwise service is restored the following business day. No separate after-hours price was published.
