Call to dispute incorrect charges or get help if you struggle to pay your bill.

Budget Energy Meters

Without accurate readings from your energy meter, Budget Energy sometimes has to estimate your bills. This is why it is important to make sure that they have accurate readings from your meter. Otherwise, you could be paying too much or too little for your energy usage. Call the number to the left for guidance on reading your energy meter or to submit a new reading. Customers won’t need to do this for pre-payment meters.
