Customer is Not Receiving a Statement- 1814

Estimated Reading Time: 2 Minutes

Introduction

A statement is not received in these instances:

 
  1. Disconnected accounts with a zero-dollar balance
     
  2. Active account with a balance less than $1.00
     
  3. Statements are sent to the service address (SA) unless the customer requests a bill-to-address
      
    • If the Service Address is incorrect, submit an Address Request Form to the correct address
       
  4. If ICOMS [BI] Print Statement is set to C Change from Previous, the bill will not print, causing a missing bill
     

 

Resolution Steps

Verify Billing or Service Address for Monthly Billing

 
  • In BOLT, select General Ledger tab
     
  • Statement Configuration tab displays bill to information 
     
    • Displays Service Address or Billing Address (standard)
       
  • In ICOMS Statement Configuration [BI] screen
     
    • Bill-to information must be in all capital letters 
       
    • Five total lines of the billing address are printed on a bill 
       
    • Confirm valid formatting and verify address according to the US Postal Service Standards
       
    • Make sure the Foreign Address box is not checked
       
    • Check for Financial Services notes regarding returned mail
       
    • If the issue is unresolved and customer states they are not receiving their bills, enter a Service Now Ticket

 

Verify Paper or Paperless Billing

  • In BOLT, to check for paper or paperless billing status, select the General Ledger Tab, then Statement Config tab 
     
  • Under the Maintain Customer Statement section, review the bill handling status:
     
      • Default: Paper Bill

      • Electronic Bill Selfcare

      • Prepaid No Statement

      • CABS No. Statement

      • Email Bill PDF to Preferred Email

      • PDF Only (Special Use Only)


       
  • If BOLT is out of service, verify billing setup in ICOMS
     
    • Statement Configuration [BI] screen 
       
    • Highlight the statement and click Change
       
    • Bill handling determines the bill delivery method
       
      • 1  Default Paper Bill:  printed and mailed statement
         
        • The print state field should read: A Always Print Bill
           
        • Auto-pay customers must have Print Statement field set to Always Print Bill to ensure the customer's bill generates
           
      • 2  Electronic Billing: emailed statement Note:  If this is set with no Self Care account created, the customer does not receive a bill
