How The Penalty Fees Work
Bangor Hydro does not list their penalty fees online and their customer service did not release this information to non customers. We speculate that you will have to pay a percentage of your bill as a late fee. It is possible you will have to pay a fee to have your service reconnected if it has been suspended for nonpayment. You may also have to pay a deposit to restore your service. You may have to pay a fee if your payment is returned by your bank.
I Can’t Make A Payment
Bangor Hydro will work with you to extend the payment due date if you let them know what is going on as soon as possible before the due date.
