Hello, my mother passed away 5/24/24, her name is Ellen Goretsky, house acct # 301144838, garage acct # 3502046007. I have been paying her bills from a shared checking account in both our names, my name is MaryBeth Goretsky, (mbgoretsky@gmail.com)
I would like to transfer the name on these accounts to my daughter who has been living in the same house for more than one year.
Also would like to change the provider from Major Energy who sent a letter stating rate increasing from $0.1999/k Wh to $0.2199/k Wh by end of May 25.
Can you please help with above?

Hello my name is June,
I have sent 5 emails to ontrac program and haven’t heard a word from them. I have a medical condition, whereI depend on electric.
My doctor did send in a form for a month of extension for my ever growing bill. I’m just concerned that ontrac won’t come in time or haven’t gotten 1 of the 5 emails. Or I don’t know what the situation is. Please help me look into this. Time is not on my side.
Thank you
June
