Paying your utility bills can feel like a chore. You either have to mail in a check each month or remember to log in and pay before the due date. Forgetting means late fees or even service interruption. Who needs that hassle?
Luckily, Ugi offers easy online payment options to take the stress out of bill pay. As a Ugi customer myself, I’ve taken advantage of these convenient billing and payment features Read on to learn how online bill pay can make your life easier
AutoPay Ensures You Never Miss a Payment
One of the best ways to avoid late Ugi bills is to enroll in AutoPay, This optional feature automatically pays your bill each month on the due date,
To get started, simply log into your Ugi account and turn on AutoPay. You can use a credit card, debit card, or bank account. On the due date each month, Ugi will automatically withdraw your payment.
I love AutoPay because it ensures I never forget a bill. The payment happens seamlessly in the background without me having to think about it. My bill gets paid on time every month, so no late fees.
One tip is to make sure you have enough funds in your linked account to cover the payment each month. You may want to opt for a bank account over a credit card to avoid overdrafts or interest charges.
Pay Online Through Your Account for Free
If you don’t want payments to happen automatically, you can still pay your Ugi bill online through your account. Simply log in at ugi.com and click on “Make a Payment” to pay by credit/debit card or bank transfer.
This online payment option is completely free and only takes a few minutes. You can even store your payment method to simplify future transactions.
I like paying through my account because I get instant confirmation when the payment goes through I don’t have to worry that a mailed check will get lost Plus it’s faster than writing and mailing a physical check,
One thing to note is that online payments via Ugi’s website need to be initiated before 4 PM for same day processing. Payments after 4 PM will get processed the next business day.
Use Quick Pay for Fast One-Time Payments
In addition to paying through your Ugi account, you can also make one-time payments through Ugi’s Quick Pay portal. This option is great for times when you just need to pay your bill quickly without logging into your account.
To use Quick Pay, you’ll need your Ugi account number and zip code. Then choose whether to pay with your bank account or credit/debit card and enter the necessary info. The payment processes instantly.
I really like having Quick Pay as a backup option if I’m not able to log into my account or I’m trying to make a payment from a shared computer. It’s fast and easy for those one-off bill payments.
Pay In-Person at CheckFreePay Locations
If you prefer paying your Ugi bill in cash, you can visit authorized CheckFreePay locations in-person. These payment sites allow you to pay your utility bill at a retail store for a small service fee.
To find a location near you, check out the list of authorized CheckFreePay sites on Ugi’s website. You’ll need to bring your Ugi account number to reference when making an in-person payment.
Paying at an unauthorized payment location could delay processing of your payment to Ugi, so be sure to use authorized vendors. The service fee also varies based on location.
Pay by Phone Through the Automated System
Another way to pay your monthly Ugi bill is through the automated phone payment system. To use this option, call 800-276-2722 and follow the prompts.
You’ll need to enter your Ugi account number. Then choose whether to pay with a credit/debit card or bank account transfer. The automated system will guide you through the steps.
I like the phone payment option for times when I don’t have easy internet access but need to pay quickly. The automated system is available 24/7 for payments. Just be aware that bank transfers can only happen on weekdays during business hours.
Avoid Service Interruption with Online Account Access
The great thing about paying online through Ugi is you can log into your account anytime to check your balance. This lets you monitor your account to avoid service interruptions.
If you do receive a shut off notice, you can quickly log in and make a payment to resume service. You’ll get an instant payment confirmation, rather than waiting for a mailed check to process.
Online account access gives me peace of mind about the status of my account. I don’t have to wonder if my last payment posted correctly or what my current balance is. All of the information is right there when I log in.
Sign Up for Budget Billing to Spread Costs Evenly
If you’re looking to spread your Ugi costs more evenly throughout the year, consider enrolling in their Budget Billing program. This plan averages your usage over 12 months to create a predictable monthly payment amount.
To get started, sign into your Ugi account and complete the online Budget Billing enrollment. Your payment will be recalculated each quarter and adjusted if needed based on your consumption.
I love Budget Billing because it makes my bill payment consistent each month. There are no surprises from seasonal spikes. The program is great for households like mine that are on a tight budget.
Go Paperless and Access Billing Digitally
You can make paying your Ugi bill even more eco-friendly by going paperless. Sign into your account and opt to receive billing statements and notices electronically rather than through the mail.
You’ll get an email each month letting you know your new statement is ready. You can view or download your PDF statement right from your account dashboard. No more waiting for snail mail delivery!
I switched my account to paperless billing because it reduces clutter in my mailbox. Now I have instant access to my bill rather than shuffling through papers. Plus it’s better for the environment to go paper-free.
