Help for Your Business During COVID-19
We are committed to the health, safety and financial well-being of our customers and employees, and we are here to help your business. Resources are available now to help businesses, self-employed Vermonters, independent contractors and non-profits struggling with the financial aftershocks of COVID-19 to keep all of us safe and healthy.
Payment plan for your GMP account
Call or email us and we will work with you on a custom payment plan. While regular billing continues, we suspended disconnects and other collections on late accounts through May because we know the COVID-19 pandemic has created hardships for families and businesses and it will take time to get the economy back on track. The Business team is here for you – just email us at Business@greenmountainpower.com or call (888) 835-4672.
