Georgia Power
Charged $150 deposit for requesting bill extensions

Shops, Products, Services

I have been charged a $150 deposit now for requesting extensions on my bills. My power has never been cut off, I always pay my bills on the arranged days, and I always confirm with the customer service representative what fees or negative feedback will be placed on my account due to the requests. I have never been notified this was impending and when I contacted the company via email, they reported the following:

Thank you for contacting Georgia Power.

We apologize for the inconvenience. Unfortunately, based on the payment history on the account, we are unable to cancel the deposit.
