Gas South Pay-As-You-Go® Program
As temperatures cool and the economy continues to struggle, Northeast Cobb consumers are looking for savings and value during home heating season. Gas South's Pay-As-You-Go program may be the answer.

Gas South’s Pay-As-You-Go® program provides affordable residential natural gas service to credit-challenged consumers in Georgia. The program was introduced in 2008. It's the first of its kind in Georgia. It is the only program that does not require customers to make a deposit or other prepayment before being accepted for service. The program also is ideal for customers who may lack a credit history or are dealing with financial challenges that prevent them from enrolling with other natural gas providers.
Customers who establish a good payment record with Pay-As-You-Go® for 12 consecutive months become eligible to switch to one of Gas South’s standard rate plans for even more savings. Since the program began, more than 6,200 customers have been able to transition to Gas South’s standard rate plans.
“We are very pleased to be able to provide natural gas service to many customers that other natural gas providers might require to pay huge deposits or refuse to provide service to at all,” said Kevin Greiner, president and CEO of Gas South. “The Pay-As-You-Go® program has proven to be a very important option for people who are credit-challenged or facing financial difficulties because there is no prepayment required and our rates are very affordable.”
