Secure a utility service that you need through this surety bond! APPLY NOW!

Utility bonds serve as a deposit or financial guarantee to a utility company in case the Principal or the person who applied for a utility service defaults on his or her obligation such as paying the utility bill due on time and in full.

 

When this happens, the utility company will file claims on the surety bond up to its penal sum to cover any financial loss.

 

First-time applicants or applicants that have a history of delinquent accounts may be required to procure a surety bond by the utility company in New York before providing a service or restoring service.

 

What are the Utility Bond amounts?

The bond amount will vary per utility company or provider. Before you apply for a utility bond, verify the full amount that you need with your provider.
