Bill Pay Assistance

Archived as originally published. Information reflects the date of this article.

Entergy Louisiana has partnered with Louisiana United Ways to offer bill payment assistance on first-come, first-served basis to qualify residential customers across the state, with the application process expected to launch August 17. This will include the company's service territory in north, central, southeast and southwest Louisiana. This bill payment assistance is part of $10 million in shareholder donations previously announced by Entergy Corporation, with approximately $4.4 million being allocated to United Ways for benefit of Entergy Louisiana customers. Qualifying Entergy Louisiana electric customers in all parishes served by the company will be able to apply for a one time $150 credit to their utility bill through their local United Way. To qualify, customers must be Entergy electric customers and have a total household income not exceeding 250% of the federal poverty level, which equates to $69,000 for a family of four.
