West Kentucky Rural Electric Cooperative Corporation

Prepay Service Agreement

Prepay service is available to all residential members as an option subject to the following provisions:

Eligibility
New and existing residential members qualify for participation. The member must pay all applicable fees prior to commencement of the service. Existing members with billed or unbilled account balances may either pay the existing balance or the Cooperative will collect the balance through the debt assist mechanism.
Fees and Charges
A daily prepay fee of $.20 will apply to all participating accounts. Any and all existing fees, rates, and charges, excluding security deposits continue to apply, including existing applicable energy and customer charges.
How the Plan Works
A member wishing to enroll in prepay service shall make a request to the Cooperative. The Cooperative will allow enrollment into prepay service if the member meets the eligibility requirements. Once a credit balance has been established the account will be activated. As energy is consumed, the credit balance is reduced until either the balance is exhausted or additional payments are added to the balance. Any account with a current debit balance is subject to immediate disconnection. Participants may elect to receive daily notification of account balance information.
Payment
Once an initial credit balance has been established, the minimum office payment allowed is $20.00. Participants may pay as often as they wish, provided the payment meets the minimum amount, and the account maintains a credit balance. Prepaid accounts are not eligible for payment arrangements.
Debt Assist
A debt assist mechanism will be utilized to collect any prior balance that may exist when the member applies for PREPAY. A percentage (DA RATE below) will be taken out of each payment and applied to existing debt.
Notification
Prepay participants will not receive monthly statements. Members may elect to be notified of low balances, daily balance, pending disconnect, disconnection, and reconnection via phone, email and/or text message. Disconnection of an account will occur when a credit balance is not present regardless of notification. Participants may check daily account balances by visiting www.wkrecc.com, a WKRECC office, or by calling 1-844-808-3341. By providing your phone number(s) on this form, the member is consenting to receive phone calls and/or texts from the Cooperative. It is the responsibility of the member to change his/her alert settings as required, or to request that the Cooperative make such changes.
Disconnection
An account will be subject to immediate disconnection at any time the account does not have a credit balance. Service will be reconnected after payment of the debit balance due, plus $35 (to create a $35 credit balance), plus a $15 reconnection fee. If an account is disconnected and does not become active after seven (7) days, the account will be considered inactive and a final bill will be mailed to the last known address on file.
Cancellation
Participants may convert an account to postpaid electric service at any time provided the member’s account is current and an adequate security deposit is provided. Service terminated at the request of the member will receive a refund of any remaining credit on the account.
