We do not accept applications, or even help people apply for that matter. We tell people about the programs available to them, and who they can call. So yes, there is that discount program in Illinois, and even more resources for utility bill are listed here at Illinois utility assistance Find more details.. Who is your energy company, ComEd? It really doesn't matter as we have them all covered on the site.

Hello,
Its 4 am and I can't sleep since PG&E gave me a shut of notice (06/18/16)
After being one payment behind on the discount plan! My total bill is under 300.00 and I been a loyal customers for 20 + years!
I am not working, just found out I'm borderline diabetic and have some soft tissue tumor growing on my foot that is really effecting my mobility. Next Thursday I'll see a specialist.
My parents are tapped out and just can't help me as well as (out of work) other resources hitting a low right now also.
I was searching for "rural assistance" or "discounts" people for Sutter county California when I found you.
Please respond, I only have until 06/18/16.
Sincerely

Hi
I do have a question about discount electric and utility bills.
Can you please help me where I can find summer discount electric bill in somewhere Phoenix AZ?
Salvation Army said only 21 dollars discount every month.
SRP says budget will be my average $140 monthly on utility bills. I can't do that because it is too high for my low income. My SSDI is only $821 monthly because I live alone.
I want to get like 50 % discount or I can get $125 summer monthly start June to Sept. Something like that.
