Bill Explanation

Do you have some specific questions about the parts of your bill?

Pre Pay Billing

Want one less thing to remember? Sign up for pre-pay billing and only get notices to pay when your initial deposit reaches $25 or less. To sign up call one of our member service representatives at (325) 793-8500.

Budget Billing

After just one year of membership, you can sign up for average billing and take the guesswork out of your monthly bill. With average billing, we look at your usage history from the previous year and take an average amount. You then pay the same amount each month. To sign-up for budget billing, contact one of our member service representatives at (325) 793-8500.

Go Green: E-Billing

This secure site is operated by our accounting contractor Southeastern Data Cooperative and maintained independently of Taylor Electric Cooperative. It meets all security regulations to ensure that your financial information is protected by the highest industry standards.

Here’s how you can take advantage of this easy payment method:

  • Your first login and password is your account number minus the last three digits. For example, if your account number is
    12345001, enter 12345 into the account number box and also type that number into the password box.
  • Once you log-in, you will be prompted to change your password. This first-time login and password information also will be
    included on your Taylor Electric monthly statement until you establish an online account, should you choose this payment
    option.
  • After confirmation of payment, Southeastern Data Cooperative will automatically post the payment to your account at
    Taylor Electric Cooperative. Note: the transaction on your financial statement will be listed as SEDC Payment, not Taylor
    Electric Cooperative.
