SCAM ALERT!
YVEA members have been receiving phone calls from someone claiming they work for YVEA and attempting to collect payment for their electric bill. They are instructing members to pay by purchasing prepaid VISA cards, or take cash to Walgreens, City Market or Safety and pay by Western Union or power will be disrupted.
This is a scam!
You can be assured that you will never get a phone call from YVEA asking to make a payment over the phone to avoid disruption of service. You will however receive a courtesy call if you have a past due balance.
If you call in to make a payment, we must send you into our automated secure system and you must verify your account information in order to make a payment.
It is always good practice if you receive a phone call of this nature from any company calling to ask for payment, especially credit card information, that you ask for a phone number and tell them you will call them right back with your payment.
Please call Yampa Valley Electric at (970)879-1160 if you have any questions.
