URGENT SCAM ALERT - Be aware of scams!
BrightRidge has received reports regarding scammers pretending to be a utility customer service representative, calling and demanding payment for their electric services. Even if the scammer is threatening to shut off your electric and could also know your balance details, this is still a scam.
Please remember:
BrightRidge will NEVER call and pressure you to make an immediate payment with threats over the phone. We do not accept any type of payment over the phone unless a customer calls into the automated phone system. ALWAYS verify your account status through the SmartHub app or online, even if you are threatened with disconnection during the call. If you are unsure about a call or message, contact BrightRidge directly at (423) 952-5000 before sharing any information, or visit online at brightridge.com
