Entergy Mississippi customers can opt for $80 check or bill credit beginning Aug. 1

Entergy Mississippi customers can expect to see a credit on their bill or a check as a result of a $300 million settlement between Entergy and the Mississippi Public Service Commission.

The proceeds from the settlement will offer a one-time $80 credit to customers. Customers who do not opt for a check will see a credit on their September bill.

“Our job at the PSC is to be a watchdog, not a lapdog agency and this $80 refund is a direct result of our action to protect the pocketbooks of Mississippians against over-profiting by corporate monopolies. I fought hard to give each Entergy customer the option to get this $80 in the form of a check rather than just a bill credit. With gas prices at $4 per gallon at the pump and inflation rising at every turn, I want customers who need this money for the family budget to get it now. If they just want a bill credit then they don’t have to sign up for a check and they’ll get the credit automatically in September,” Commissioner Brandon Presley said.

Customers who wish to receive the check can opt to do so from their MyEntergy account between Aug. 1 – Aug. 17.
