In order to have your account placed on a lev­elized bud­get billing, you need to be a mem­ber of YEC at your cur­rent res­i­dence for one year, have main­tained good cred­it (as defined by YEC), have a zero bal­ance, and pay your bill by the orig­i­nal due date each month. There is no ser­vice charge or month­ly fee, so call us if you want to lev­el it out!
