Who Needs This Bond?
Members — residential or commercial — of Verdigris Valley Electric Cooperative, Inc. who have been told a security deposit is required to open or reinstate their electric account need this bond.

What is this Bond For?

For the member, the bond fulfills the security obligation without tying up cash in a deposit account.
When is it Required?
Applying to open a new electric service account or requesting restoration of a suspended account with Verdigris Valley Electric Cooperative, Inc. is the moment this bond becomes mandatory — specifically when the cooperative determines a security deposit is required.

Once the cooperative specifies the required bond amount, you can purchase and submit this bond immediately.
Where Does it Apply?
This bond applies exclusively to electric service accounts held with Verdigris Valley Electric Cooperative, Inc. in Oklahoma.
