JACKSON, Miss., July 24, 2025 /CSRwire/ - Although Entergy Mississippi’s rates remain 20% below the national average, home cooling costs can make up more than 50% of an average customer’s electric bill. Entergy Mississippi is committed to helping customers stay cool and save money throughout the hotter months with bill management tools and resources. The company’s online Bill Toolkit connects customers to energy efficiency tips and resources, as well as information about as bill management and financial assistance options.

“At Entergy, we’re here to support our customers with help to stay cool and save money this summer,” said Robbie Kemp, vice president, customer service. “Our online Bill Toolkit provides easy access bill management tools, energy efficiency resources and assistance options to help our customers take control of their energy use and costs.”

Tracking energy use through myAdvisor

Customers can set electric usage alerts and monitor how much energy they use each day through bill management tools like myAdvisor which is available through their myEntergy account. Tracking usage over time can help customers identify trends that contribute to higher usage and budget their monthly expenses. With the myAdvisor dashboard, customers have access to not only usage and cost details, but also bill history and projections, analyzer tools and more. On the Entergy mobile app, this information can be found by clicking the “usage” tab.

Managing bills through payment options

Entergy offers several flexible payment options so customers can choose when, where and how they receive their bills.

• Pick-A-Date allows customers to pay their bills when it works best for them.
• Level Billing allows customers to “level out” seasonal energy use fluctuations, making their bills more consistent every month.
• PaperFREE billing allows customers to get their bills emailed as soon as they post and instant access to two years of billing history.
• AutoPay allows customers to avoid late fees, writing checks and paying for postage by having bills automatically deducted from their bank accounts.

Entergy encourages customers who may need additional payment options to reach out. To see if customers automatically qualify for deferred payment arrangements or payment extensions, they can visit our mobile app or myEntergy.

Finding financial assistance

For customers needing assistance to pay their bills, Entergy Mississippi is here to help. Throughout this summer, the company hosted Beat the Heat Day, a focus on helping low-income customers and communities stay cool and pay their bills. The program provides bill payment assistance, fans, energy efficiency kits and support from local community partners to help hundreds of residential customers across the state.

In addition, Entergy partners with local and state organizations to connect qualifying customers with financial assistance, including:

• The Power to Care program provides emergency bill payment assistance to older adults and customers with disabilities.
• Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program or LIHEAP provides financial assistance for energy bills and other energy-related expenses.
