The amount you paid at the start of your previous billing period. It was based on how much electricity we predicted you would use during the billing period.

Next Billing Period

 

The Last section of page 1 of the Yuno energy Bill


This section covers the calculation of the amount due for the upcoming billing period.
 

1. Advance Payment 

The amount owed based on your predicted usage. 
 

2. Factors Affecting Payment

Any positive or negative amount applied to the current payment. 

  • Credit carried forward from a previous billing period taken off this payment.

  • Ad-hoc payments made during Billing Periods towards your next bill.

  • Any difference between your predicted and actual usage from the previous period applied to this bill.

     

3. Total

The combined total of the above figures applied to your Advance Payment. Making payments during the current billing period and using less electricity than predicted will help reduce your costs.
 

4. Total Payment Due

This is the amount charged to the debit or credit card on your account on billing day. It accounts for your Advance Payment (1) and Total (3).
