  • When I sign Integrys' contract, when will I start to see my savings and how long am I required to remain an Integrys customer?
  • You will begin to see your savings on your gas bill within two to three months of signing up with Integrys. For example: anyone who enrolls into the Energy Choice Program before the 10th of each month, and meets Dominion East Ohio's eligibility, will see Integrys' gas costs on the bill they receive in the second succeeding month*. The contract length is for a primary term of one year and shall continue year to year thereafter. You will be contacted approximately 45 days but not more than 90 days before the end of the current contract for the opportunity to re-new or cancel the agreement. Moving your residence or business will automatically end your contract with Integrys on the same day that you disconnect your gas service from DEOG. Should you move to a location that is eligible for participation in the DEOG Energy Choice Program you will need to contact Integrys to re-enroll and begin a new contract for your new location.

    *For example, Customers enrolling by the 10th of January and are approved by Dominion will be receiving gas flow with the February billing cycle. The first Dominion gas bill to show Integrys' rate will be the March billing cycle.
