Missouri HB3212 allows for the transfer of utility service to a spouse without additional fees if the account holder dies or is incarcerated for over.
Missouri HB3212 amends Chapter 393 by adding a new section, 393.1685, which prohibits public utilities from charging additional deposits or transfer fees when transferring services to a spouse. This applies if the account is in good standing and the account holder either dies or is incarcerated for more than 60 days. However, a new deposit may be required if the spouse has an unpaid bill within the last five years, has interfered with or diverted service without authorization, or fails to provide proof of identity.
