This method only takes payment when you confirm and you have the option to delete your banking details after making a payment.

However, this Penelec one-time bill pay method will not work under the following conditions and it might take 1 to 3 business days for the deduction to take effect.

  • Bill is over 30 days past due
  • The account is in disconnect status
  • The account is identified as a “cash only” account
  • Your account is a collective billing account
