How Entergy Louisiana Customers Can Get a $100 Bill Credit

Starting October 28, at 9 a.m., thousands of Entergy Louisiana customers living below the federal poverty level or within Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed (ALICE) households can apply for a one-time $100 bill credit through local United Way partners while funds last, according to kplctv.com.

Shareholder Funds Support Low Income Households

The $2 million assistance program relies on shareholder dollars. Nyka Scott, Entergy Louisiana customer service vice president, noted that the credit aims to support communities dealing with rising everyday expenses. According to wbrz.com, the utility company plans to email potentially eligible customers directly to encourage participation.

The program targets two distinct financial brackets:

  • Households living below the federal poverty level.
  • ALICE households, defined as individuals and families earning above the federal poverty threshold but failing to meet the actual cost of living in their specific parishes. Many of these residents typically miss out on traditional assistance programs.

Residents Submit Income Documentation via United Way

Applicants must visit their local participating United Way website to submit their information. For residents needing computer access, local public libraries offer a practical alternative, and in-person assistance depends on each regional United Way’s application website.
