Avoid Unpredictable Bills
Gas prices fluctuate, but your Nicor bill doesn't have to. Simplify your budget and pay the same set amount each month for your natural gas usage.
How Does Budget Plan Work?
Calculate
To determine your annual bill amount, we calculate your natural gas bill charges from the last 12 months and estimate gas prices for the next 12 months.
Average
We divide that annual bill amount by 12 months to determine your new monthly Budget Plan amount.
Review
About every four months we'll review your account and may adjust your monthly budgeted amount so that your payments are in line with your actual usage and the price of gas.
Who Can Use Budget Plan?
To enroll in Budget Plan, you must be current on your natural gas bill. If not current, you’ll need to pay the past-due balance or set up a payment arrangement for this balance to be eligible to enroll in the Budget Plan.
Are You Past Due on Your Bill?
You may be eligible to set up a Deferred Payment Arrangement which will bring your bill current.
