Do you offer any rewards for referring new builders to UtilityOn?

Yes we do! Our "Tell a friend" feature rewards both you and other TX builders you think could benefit from our service

What does "On Hold" mean?

If you see an orange "On Hold" badge, that means an issue is preventing your meter from progressing further.

Can I request a Perm meter with different specs to Temp?

Why did you request a Permanent meter when I only asked for Temporary?

We pre-request a Perm ESI-ID in advance to avoid delays later on.

Every meter follows a simple lifecycle which you can track through a sequence of color-coded status tags.

Just message us within the connection detail page.
