Florida Beaches Energy Services / City of Jacksonville Beach Utility Deposit Bond
Overview
Florida Beaches Energy Services, operating through the City of Jacksonville Beach, requires certain utility customers to post a surety bond before activating or restoring electric service — instead of tying up cash in a security deposit. This bond puts a licensed surety behind your account, guaranteeing that Jacksonville Beach utility bills will be paid. It costs a fraction of what a cash deposit would lock away, and it works immediately once issued.
Who Needs This Bond?
Customers applying for or restoring electric service through Florida Beaches Energy Services / City of Jacksonville Beach who have been flagged for a deposit requirement need this bond. That flag typically follows a credit review, a lapse in service, or a history of late payments on a prior utility account. Residential and commercial customers alike may receive this requirement. If the utility gave you a deposit notice, this bond is your alternative.
What is this Bond For?
This bond replaces a cash security deposit that Florida Beaches Energy Services / City of Jacksonville Beach would otherwise hold against your account. It protects the utility — not you — by guaranteeing that unpaid balances can be recovered through a bond claim if your account falls delinquent. You keep your cash, the utility gets its security, and your service moves forward. The bond remains in place for as long as Jacksonville Beach requires it.
When is it Required?
Activation of a new account or restoration of a suspended account with Florida Beaches Energy Services triggers the deposit requirement that makes this bond necessary. Jacksonville Beach utility staff will inform you of the required bond amount at the time of application or reinstatement. Once you present proof of your surety bond, the cash deposit is waived and service can proceed. Don't let a deposit hold your service up — this bond resolves it the same day.
Where Does it Apply?
This bond is specific to utility accounts served by Florida Beaches Energy Services operating under the City of Jacksonville Beach, Florida.
