Customer Service: How To Start and Stop Service
Starting or Transferring ServiceTo start utility service or to transfer your account to a new address, call 541-746-9599 or come to SUB’s main office at 250 A Street. Please come in at least one business day before you’d like service to begin or to be transferred to your new address. Generally, you can be connected by 5:00 pm of the first full working day following your request.
There is a $15 account processing charge to start or switch service.
In accordance with federal law, SUB will help to fight identity theft by verifying your identity. We will ask for your name, address, date of birth, social security number and other information that will allow us to confirm your identity. We may also ask to see your driver's license or other identifying documents. If you do not have a social security number, please ask us about other options for opening an account.
You may or may not be required to post a security deposit; it depends on several factors. If a security deposit is required, SUB has alternatives to requiring payment. For example, SUB could check your credit using an on-line service that will not affect your credit score. Or, you could get a qualified co-signer, who must be a SUB customer and have had satisfactory credit for two years.
Stopping Service
To stop service, call SUB at 541-746-9599 at least one business day before you’d like service to be stopped. There is no charge to stop service, but it’s important that you call because you will be responsible for the utilities used in your current residence or place of business until you tell us to stop service. Be sure to give us a forwarding address so we can send you a final statement. If you paid a deposit, we’ll apply the deposit to your final bill and return any remainder to you.
Temporarily Stopping Service
