Prohibits telecommunications, utility or cable television companies from charging certain customers prior to actual billing due date.
This bill prevents telecommunications, utility, and cable companies from charging customers' credit cards or bank accounts before the standard billing due date for service, unless the customer has given written consent. It specifically applies to automatic billing for services like phone, electricity, gas, and cable. Companies may still charge early if a customer requests it by phone or through a method approved by the Board of Public Utilities. The Board of Public Utilities will enforce this rule to ensure companies comply with the new billing requirements.
