ATTENTION: In response to the current COVID-19/Coronavirus public health and safety concerns, effective immediately, the Public Utilities Regulatory Authority (Authority) will no longer accept walk-in customer complaints in our offices at 10 Franklin Square, New Britain, Connecticut. Customers may still contact the Authority by telephone (1-800-382-4586, toll-free) or by email at pura.information@ct.gov.
Utilities currently offer payment programs to assist with missed payments caused by Covid-19 or based on financial hardship. Follow the link below to the utility for descriptions and to find which payment program is right for you. Contact your utility to enroll. Shutoff protection ends on October 1 for customers not designated financial hardship or not currently enrolled in a payment program. Your utility will contact you prior to shut off.
