What You Can Do
1. Contact Us Early
If you’re having trouble paying, get in touch as soon as possible.
We can help with things like:
Payment extensions
Partial payment options
Flexible payment plans
Getting ahead of it can help you avoid overdue charges and disconnection.
2. Request a 14-Day Extension
You can do this easily through My Account.
While your extension is active:
Credit action may be paused
Regular monthly bills will still be sent
Once you’re caught up, you can set up a new direct debit
3. Set Up Partial Payments
Can’t pay it all at once? No worries.
We can split the bill into smaller installments or adjust the minimum payment amount — whatever helps you stay on top of things.
4. Get Help from WINZ
We work closely with Work and Income (WINZ) to make things easier.
We can send them a referral outlining what’s needed to help with your electricity bill.
If approved, WINZ may assist through direct payments or other arrangements.
Tip: have your account info ready when contacting them — it speeds things up.
5. Ask About Payment Flexibility
Financial stress can happen to anyone.
If you need more time or flexibility, just reach out. We’ll look at your situation and help you avoid late fees or disconnection wherever we can.
