Why is my bill late?

FAQWhy is my bill late?

To enable timely and accurate billing, Synergy must receive the correct metering data from the meter at your property from the network provider. On occasion the provision of this data may be delayed for a number of reasons including but not limited to metering delays through the network provider, a meter change on the property, a product change on the Synergy account or metering data validation issues. Recently, due to technical issues, the network operator has been unable to provide us with metering data for some accounts since the meters were last read. As a result, we’ve been unable to issue bills to impacted accounts for recent electricity consumption as per our standard 60-day billing cycle. This means that bills for impacted accounts will cover a longer period of time than usual. Synergy is working closely with the network operator to assist and resolve the technical issue as a priority and we will issue bills for impacted accounts as soon as possible.
