I am a snowbird and need to start and end the electric power at our residence. I ended up finding out that an OLD account of mine was still active. And the true account that was to have power turned off was not. It was a real mess. Found out as a SNOWBIRD that NYSEG gives you a NEW ACCOUNT number Each Time you open an account. We are NOT the ONLY SNOWBIRDS using NYSEG services. They need to CREATE ONE ACCOUNT for SNOWBIRDS so there is NO CONFUSION as a single account number would be used. That is EXACTLY what Waste Management does. NYSEG needs to do the same.
