- What is Quick Payment?
- Quick Payment allows you to pay your MGU bill with your credit card, debit card or checking account today.
- Why do I have to pay a service fee when paying online?
-
Credit card payments to MGU
are processed by Online Resources, a company that specializes in payment services.
Online Resources charges the service fee to cover processing fees and transaction
costs associated with handling credit card and electronic payments.
MGU does not receive any portion of this fee.
If MGU were to cover the cost of the service fee, that cost would eventually affect all customers through our rates. Because not every customer will use this service, we do not feel it would be fair to spread the cost across all customers.
Automatic Payment is a free option that has your payment automatically withdrawn from your bank account on the date you specify each month.
- What is the fee for paying online using Quick Payment?
- When you pay with Quick Payment, you will be charged a $3.95 service fee by Online Resources, the company that processes the transaction).
- How does Quick Payment differ from Automatic Payment?
- With Quick Payment you are making a one-time payment on your account. With Automatic Payment, payments are automatically deducted from your bank account each month.
- When will my payment show up on my MGU account?
- Payments made using Quick Payment will take two business days to be applied to your MGU account. Your bank account will be debited prior to that. If the payment is being made to prevent or restore a service disconnection, you should make the payment and then contact us with your payment confirmation number so we know it has been made.
