As part of NJ Bill S3620 – Energy Bill Watch – we are required to automatically enroll qualified customers in email alerts to advise you of your electricity usage and estimated costs after the 10th and 20th days of your monthly billing cycle.

After the 10th day of your monthly billing cycle, you will receive an email and/or text message alert letting you know how much electricity you used and the estimated cost for the first 10 days of your billing cycle. After the 20th day of your monthly billing cycle, you will receive a second email and/or text message alert letting you know how much electricity you used and the estimated cost for the first 20 days of your billing cycle.

If you do not wish to receive these alerts, you can unsubscribe at any time from the unsubscribe link in the alert email. You can also unsubscribe by logging into My Account at pseg.com, selecting MyMeter, and clicking “Alerts” where you can manage your settings. You can also sign up to receive alerts via text message or enroll additional contacts in Energy Bill Watch alerts.

Energy Bill Watch alerts are for residential customers who have a smart meter installed at their property. The smart meter must be fully operational, meaning it is transmitting your usage data to us daily.

Customers using a third party supplier will see estimates based on PSE&G’s Basic Generation Service (BGS) rate. Customers with a net meter will see estimates for consumption only, excluding generation.

A displayed cost of $0.00 indicates that your electric rate is not included in Energy Bill Watch calculations.

You may not have been auto enrolled for the following reasons:

• You do not have a fully operational smart meter installed.
• You are not a residential customer.
• We do not have a valid email address on file for your account.

In addition to the Energy Bill Watch alerts, you can also sign up for:

• Usage Threshold Alert - Receive a notification email and/or text when the estimated cost of usage exceeds a set dollar amount you choose.
• Weekly Usage Summary – Receive a notification email at the end of each week with your average use for the week.

You can sign up for both of these notifications by accessing MyMeter and clicking “Alerts.”

You can sign up for outage alerts, payment reminders and payment received emails and/or text message alerts on our website pseg.com/MyAlerts. Log in or register for My Account and select MyAlerts to add contact information and select the alerts you wish to receive.

You can also sign up for text message alerts by texting REG to 4PSEG (47734). You will receive a text message back asking for your account number and to accept the terms and conditions. Follow the prompts to reply. Upon confirmation, you will automatically be registered for alerts related to power outages. To select additional alerts or change your subscriptions, text SUB or go to MyAlerts in your online account.

Please note: You must accept the terms and conditions during the registration process before your alerts are activated. Message and data rates may apply.

You can reply STOP to any text message you receive to stop receiving alerts on that topic.

Electric usage is calculated using the same information that’s available to you in MyMeter, so the kilowatt hours (kWh) that you see reflect your actual, up-to-date consumption. The cost, however, is an estimate that is based on the usage and the most current rate information.

The estimated cost does not include items like prior unpaid balances, payment plans, participation in the Equal Payment Plan, bill assistance programs, and special discounts like community solar. The estimated cost only includes your current usage and the most current rate information.

If you have multiple electric meters at your address, you will receive one alert that contains usage and cost information for all meters.
