What does the 30-day grace period mean?

If you have any unpaid ECQ/MECQ (March 1 to May 31, 2020) and MECQ (August 1 to 31, 2020) electricity bills, you are entitled to a 30-day extension as follows:

  • If your original ECQ/MECQ installment plan ended on or before October 15, 2020, you are entitled to a 30-day extension from October 29, 2020.

    For example:
    • Your ECQ/MECQ Installment Plan was due October 15, 2020.
    • You were not able to settle payment.
    • You are given a 30-day extension from October 30 to November 28, 2020. Your new due date is November 29, 2020.

  • If you have an ongoing ECQ/MECQ installment plan, you are entitled to a 30-day extension from the last due date of your installment plan.

    For example:
    • Your ECQ/MECQ Installment Plan is still ongoing and is expected to end on January 15, 2021.
    • You are not able to settle payment by January 15, 2021.
    • You are given a 30-day extension from January 15, 2021 to February 14, 2021. Your new due date is February 15, 2021.

  • If you have an unpaid balance falling due within MECQ (August 1 to 31), you are entitled to a 30-day extension from October 29, 2020.

    For example:
    • You have an unpaid August 6, 2020 bill.

What if I don't want to avail of the 30-day grace period?

In the ERC Advisory dated Oct 29, 2020, customers who have the ability to pay are encouraged to settle their bills within the original due dates to help manage the cash flow in the energy supply chain and ensure the continuous supply of electricity.

Please refer to this page for a list of available payment channels.

What will happen if I can't pay the ECQ/MECQ bills after the 30-day grace period?

After the 30-day extension, any unpaid balance from ECQ/MECQ bills will automatically be converted into three (3) equal monthly installments. Please refer to your bill for the installment plan payment schedule.

We will also be sending an Installment Payment letter before your IP due date with the following details:

  1. Your balance
  2. Installment amounts and respective due dates

There will be no interest, penalties, fees or any other additional charges.

Will my service be disconnected immediately after a disconnection notice?

No, it will not be disconnected immediately upon receipt of the Disconnection Notice (DN).

The disconnection date is indicated in the DN that you will receive.
