AEP just needs to lower their rates and help everyone and not a selected few.
McQuest.. actually it says you must have a balance of greater than $100. You might want to consider re-taking that finance class.
what a croc. If your income qualifies you still cannot have a past due balance of more than $100.00.
If you don’t have a past due balance than you obviously CAN afford your electric and shouldn’t need the relief. Makes no sense. AEP is clowns.
