Some tips:
- Apply for utility assistance programs as soon as possible. For gas and electric, customers must notify PSE&G that they have applied for assistance to receive protection from disconnection of service for up to 90 days. Call 800-357-2262.
- Contact PSE&G to set up a Deferred Payment Arrangement (DPA) This special arrangement is available to all customers, regardless of past payment history, with no money down. Do this by visiting PSE&G or call 800-357-2262. When asked, “What would you like help with today?” just say, “Payment arrangement.” Your account will be protected from the day you create the DPA and make your monthly payments.
Thanks to increased income limits, more people are now eligible for payment assistance. Apply for Utility Payment Assistance Programs online or call 2-1-1.
