PSE帮助
I’m receiving a PSE帮助 grant, do I still need to pay my payment arrangement?
Please continue to pay the amount due on your bills, including any payment arrangement amounts.
How do I get help with my bill if I’m told that funding has run out?
Please contact PSE if your local agency informs you that PSE帮助 funding has run out.
Do the funds from PSE帮助 need to be paid back to PSE?
No, PSE will not ask you to pay back a PSE帮助 grant.
Are these government funded programs?
PSE帮助 is a rate payer funded program.
Will the PSE帮助 funds transfer to a new address upon moving?
If your closed account has unused PSE帮助 funds then those funds will move to your new PSE帮助 account. If you move out of PSE's service area then those funds will be returned to the PSE帮助 program.
