Bluebonnet Electric Cooperative offers several ways for members to seek help paying their bill. These self-service options are available 24/7 online, on the MyBluebonnet mobile app and through our automated phone system.

ONLINE

Our website offers information about payment extensionslocal energy assistance providers and other helpful information such as a weatherization program that covers home improvements to reduce your power bill.

When you request a payment extension, you will be directed to log in to your MyBluebonnet account.

This option gives qualified members an extension on the due date of their current monthly bill. The member must be past due only on their current bill, have applied within 10 days of the due date and have met the requirements of previous payment extensions.
