Navigating Con Edison's New Billing System
What you need to know
In the dynamic landscape of the energy sector, staying updated with industry changes is paramount. Today, we're casting a spotlight on an important transition within Con Edison's billing process. Con Edison, one of the prominent energy providers, is ushering in a change this month—a new 11-digit account number on their bills. This move is part of their ongoing effort to streamline services and provide a better experience for their users.
Embracing the 11-Digit Account Number
Key Takeaways:
For Bank and Bill Pay Users: If you're accustomed to settling your Con Edison bill directly through your bank's website or Bill Pay, it's crucial to update your payment details with the new account number. This ensures a hassle-free transaction process in the future.
Check Payments: For those who use checks, make a note to include the new account number on your payments. This small change can significantly expedite the processing time.
Digital Users of Con Edison: If you utilize Con Edison's online portal, mobile application, or are enrolled in their Auto Pay service, breathe easy! The transition will be automatic for you, requiring no additional action on your part.
A Temporary Hiatus in Online Access
To accommodate this transition, Con Edison has announced a brief pause in online account access. From Thursday, October 5 through Monday, October 9, customers won't be able to access their online accounts. This short interruption is due to an upgrade in their customer service system, aiming to further refine and enhance the user experience.
For anyone with questions about this change, Con Edison has prepared a comprehensive Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) section on their platform to clarify any concerns.
