Craighead Electric Cooperative’s (CECC) first capital credit check pickup events in 2022 were a huge success, and they are coming back for 2023! The annual capital credits reimbursement is when the cooperative shares its profit margins for specific years with its members. These capital credits reflect your ownership stake in the company and are paid out based on your financial participation.
For 2023, CECC is giving back $1.4 million to its members and is offering them the chance to claim their share in person at one of three patronage capital events. You can pick up your capital credit check from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. at one of these locations:
– June 13, Paragould district office, 7277 Hwy 69
– June 14, Walnut Ridge district office, 477 Hwy 412
– June 15, Jonesboro headquarters, 4314 Stadium Blvd.
You can also chat with a cooperative representative and learn more about the services available from the cooperative, such as empower broadband, SmartHub and more.
How do you know if you will have a check to pick up at these events? Just ask yourself this: Did you have electric service from Craighead Electric in 2007 or 2021? If yes, congratulations! You will most likely receive a capital credits reimbursement this year! However, if your refund amount is less than $50, it will be credited to your June 2023 electric bill instead of being mailed to you.
