Payment Options

London Hydro will not demand or accept payment over the phone. Payments can be made using one of our secure options.

The OEB has seen a 70% increase in the number of reported energy scams in recent months. Some London Hydro residential and commercial customers have also been affected by this. 

Frauds are being perpetrated through phone calls, texts and emails. 

 

London Hydro is currently not promoting any energy saving programs or in-home inspections. If you receive a call, text, email or are approached by an individual, please confirm your account status with London Hydro before taking any actions. 

We encourage you to speak with friends and family members who might be more vulnerable to scammers. 

If you think you have been a victim to a scam, please contact the London Police Service Fraud Intake Line at 519-661-5515 Ext 5257.

You can also report it to the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre or the Ontario Energy Board at 1-877-632-2727 or visit oeb.ca/scams to learn more.
