Billing and Payment
Understanding My Bill
Why did I receive a bill with no gas charges?
This occurs when Atlanta Gas Light (AGL) is unable to obtain a meter reading, the meter reading is the same as the previous meter reading or you recently started, switched or stopped service. These bills will include AGL Pass Through Charges, a Customer Service Fee and possibly Interstate Pipeline Capacity Charges (for business customers) but will not include the AGL Meter Read portion or Gas Charges.
What is the Interstate Pipeline Charge?
The Interstate Pipeline Charge, which applies only to business customers, is a fee for transportation of natural gas through the interstate pipelines from various gas-producing regions to Georgia. It includes the fixed costs Gas South incurs for the transportation and storage of gas.
How do I resolve disputes regarding my payments or account?
If you think your bill is incorrect, please contact us within 30 days of the date of the bill in dispute. You won't be responsible for paying the disputed portion of the bill during the investigation period, but you will be responsible for timely payment of charges not in dispute. Gas South will make all efforts to resolve any customer disputes in a timely manner. The resolution will be communicated in writing to you within 30 days of the receipt of the dispute.
Are there any natural gas rebates that I can use?
Atlanta Gas Light (AGL) offers residential rebates and commercial rebates for water heater conversions, heat pump system conversion or a propane furnace conversion.
Why did I receive a bill that only has gas charges?
This occurs when Atlanta Gas Light (AGL) doesn't provide Pass Through Charges to Gas South during your meter read cycle. This can happen according to when you started, switched or stopped service. In rare cases, your bill can look like this when AGL provides a second meter reading for additional gas charges after your normal monthly bill was already created. These types of bills include the AGL Meter Read Charge and gas charges but don't include AGL Pass Through Charges or a Customer Service Fee.
