- Budget Billing
Budget Billing lets you spread out your annual BGE bills into even monthly payments subject to periodic true-ups. This helps you plan what your bill will be. We pay 6% simple interest on any credit balance you have with us. There is no charge for this billing option. We review your account on a regular basis throughout the year so you won't end up with a large deficit - or a large overpayment. If your payment amount needs to be adjusted up or down, we will notify you the month prior to the change. To sign up, call 410-685-0123 or 1-800-685-0123 from outside the Baltimore metropolitan area. - Bill Extender Plan
If you live on a fixed income, such as Social Security, Disability, V.A. benefits, Supplemental Security Income (SSI), Family Investment Program (FIP) or a pension, you may be eligible for our Bill Extender Plan. For qualified customers, this plan extends utility bill due dates to a date more in line with your benefits. - Third-Party Notification
BGE sometimes must turn off gas and electric service when customers don't pay their bills. Such a step is taken as a last resort. To protect customers, especially if they are ill, incapacitated, handicapped or away from home, you can designate a third party to receive a copy of any turn-off notices. Your third party can be a relative, friend, or neighbor.
BGE also offers several payment options. Which payment options work best for you?
