ENROLL IN THE
ARREARAGE MANAGEMENT PLAN (AMP)
FOR BILL PAYMENT ASSISTANCE
Do you need assistance with past‐due electricity bills? AMP is designed to help you get peace of mind and start fresh. With AMP, you may avoid service interruptions due to late or
missed payments.
How Does AMP Work?
The Arrearage Management Plan (AMP) offers a debt forgiveness payment option for residential customers enrolled in CARE and FERA and have a total account balance of $500 or more, some of which have been past due for over 90 days. After 12 individual on-time monthly bill payments, your debt will be fully forgiven (up to $8,000 per customer). If you have questions or want more information about AMP, please visit our Help Center.
Who qualifies for AMP?
You may qualify for AMP if you:
- Are enrolled in the California Alternate Rates for Energy (CARE) or Family Electric Rate Assistance (FERA) program.
- Have been an SCE customer for at least six months.
- Have a past-due bill amounting to more than $500 (some of which have been past due for more than 90 days).
- Have made at least one on-time payment in the past 24 months.
- Agree to pay all your monthly SCE bills on time for the next 12 months.
NOTE: Customers who enroll in the AMP program are not eligible for installment plans.
IMPORTANT: Net Energy Metering (NEM), Direct Access (DA), and master metered customers are not currently eligible.
What happens if you enroll in AMP but miss payments?
After completing your AMP enrollment, we will remove your account from program participation if you miss two consecutive payments or three non-consecutive payments.
It’s easy to get started.
- Complete this online application form. Enter your Service Account Number – it starts with the number “8” and is located on the upper left side of your SCE bill, under the SCE logo.
- Agree to the Terms and Conditions. After completing your application, check the “I Agree” box at the bottom of the page to agree to pay your following twelve monthly bills on time.
- Make on-time payments. After you receive our letter in the mail showing your application is approved, be sure to make your current monthly payment before the due date and continue paying in full and on time every month. We will forgive 1/12 of your total past-due amount, up to $8,000.
