Park Electric reads meters electronically through an automatic meter reading system. Meters are read daily and billed monthly. Monthly bills are calculated as close to the end of the month as possible given weekends and holidays.  Bills are mailed around the first of the month and electronic bills are generated automatically; all bills are due on the 15th of the month.

If you should move, sell or for any other reason want the service taken out of your name, it is your responsibility to notify Park Electric. If you receive your bills electronically or through the mail, you are responsible for payment even if you do not receive the bill. The methods of payment we accept are as follows:

The Automatic Payment Program (ACH) is available for those who want their payment to be automatically deducted from a bank account of their choice. The bill generated each month shows a total amount due and under the total amount due in blue it reads "Draft Scheduled" with the date the funds will be deducted.

ACH payments reduce collection costs for the cooperative and to that end the monthly base rate is reduced by $1.50/month if you choose to pay your bill via ACH. The bill credit only applies to accounts that are set up in the office with the PDF form below. If a member chooses to set up Autopay through the Customer Service Portal, no bill credit will be issued.

If for any reason you cannot pay your bill, please call our office to make arrangements. In the event that you change bank accounts, please notify us before the 1st of the month. Payments returned due to closed accounts or insufficient will be assessed a $15.00 fee.

Fill out the form and mail it along with a voided check to PO Box 1119, Livingston, MT 59047, or members can set themselves up online at our Customer Service Portal (click the link above).

Your electric bill, as you know, varies each month depending on the weather, number of electric appliances you use and many other factors. The budget billing plan allows you to pay a fixed amount each month. This makes planning your monthly expenses easier. This service is based on your previous 12 month's usage. Periodic reviews are conducted to insure that payments are adequate to cover usage and costs. These reviews also reduce the possibility of a large debit or credit balance. Please contact us to find out more information regarding budget billing.
