USING THIRD PARTY WEBSITES TO PAY UTILITY BILLS: Important information

There is an on-line bill pay website - Doxo.com - that appears to be affiliated with City of Statesville Utilities. It is not. Doxo.com is a third-party website that allows people to pay their utility bills via their site. Doxo.com may charge the member extra fees, and Statesville Utilities cannot control when we will receive the customer payments from Doxo.com. This could result in a late payment from the customer or even disconnection due to non-payment.

To make sure you're paying the City of Statesville directly, continue reading this page for how to pay your utility bills.I

Billing Cycles

The City is divided into 3 separate billing zones. Where the property is located determines if your bill is produced around the 10th, 20th or 30th of the month. The City cannot change your due date. All bills are due and payable upon receipt and are past due 21 days from the bill date. Past due bills incur a late payment penalty of $5.00 or 5%, whichever is greater.

E-Billing

Instead of receiving a paper bill, Statesville Utility customers can receive an email notifying them that their utility bill is ready. E-billing helps avoid mailing delays, gives you one less piece of mail to sort through, helps keep up with your bill (you always know where it is) and lets you do your part for the environment by saving trees, energy and resources. To sign-up, look at the green box on the front of your monthly utility bill. Follow the directions in the box to register for E-billing.

Meter Reading

Electric and water meters are read by the City every month. Each meter will be read monthly unless the meter is inaccessible because of an obstruction or unsafe condition. It is the customer’s responsibility to keep the meter accessible. If the meter cannot be accessed, the consumption will be estimated. Estimated consumptions may be lower or higher than past actual consumptions. Meter readings are cumulative, so that an actual reading will correct any past over or under estimations.

Returned Checks

A $25 fee is assessed for each returned check. Once 2 checks have been returned on your account within any 12 month period, the City will only accept cash, certified check, money order or debit card for payment during the next 12 months. Returned checks containing reconnect fees will result in immediate utility disconnection.
