Got an email from Berkeley Electric Cooperative

Dear member,

As you may have heard, the U.S. Postal Service has lengthened its "service standards" or the average length of time it takes for a piece of mail to be delivered. Effective Oct. 1, 2021, it could take up to five days for first-class mail to reach its destination.

If you receive and/or pay your bills by mail, please be aware this change could affect the timely delivery of your letters. Please expect your monthly Berkeley Electric Cooperative statements to arrive to your home or business a few days later than they used to. Also, to avoid late fees and/or service disruption, please mail your payments a few more days earlier than you used to so your bills to arrive at their destination on time.

To avoid postal delays, Berkeley Electric Cooperative recommends the following:

Sign up for paperless billing and receive your bill immediately when it is ready each month. Go to www.berkeleyelectric.coop to sign up. You can also sign up for paperless billing on the SmartHub app on your smart phone or tablet.
Pay your bill electronically at www.berkeleyelectric.coop or through the SmartHub app. Electronic-check and bank card payments can also be made over the phone (1-877-853-6731) with your account number and bank card or checking information.
You can also sign up to have your monthly payment automatically drafted on the due date from a bank account or credit/debit card.

Please contact our office at 843-761-8200 if you have any questions. Is this DeJoy.
