Criminals use technology that makes it look like MLGW is calling you. The technology is called “spoofing.” Your caller ID will display an MLGW phone number, but MLGW operators never call you personally. The criminal is trying to scam you! If you have a question about your bill check your MLGW My Account or call 901-544-6549 and speak to a Customer Care Advisor.

Los criminales usan tecnología que simula que MLGW le está llamando a usted. Esa tecnología se denomina “spoofing” y es la suplantación de la identidad. Su identificador de llamadas enseñará un número de teléfono de MLGW, pero los operadores de MLGW nunca le llamarán personalmente. ¡El criminal está tratando de estafarle! Recuerde estos consejos: • Los operadores de MLGW nunca le llamarán personalmente para exigirle un pago o para amenazarle con desconectar el servicio. • MLGW nunca le pedirá a usted llamar a un número 800 para efectuar pagos. •MLGW nunca le pedirá a usted comprar una tarjeta pre-pagada de débito para efectuar pagos. Si tiene alguna pregunta sobre su cuenta, llame al 901-544-6549 y hable con un Agente de Atención al Cliente.

Good morning, the proposed updates to gas and water rates are meant to help fund infrastructure improvements, not to purchase natural gas. The proposal also includes larger percentage increases for commercial and industrial customers than for residential customers, and a new rate structure for data centers that will increase their water rates by 30%. Thank you.

[MLGW @MLGW]

Think about your morning routine. You get up, turn on the coffee maker and fill the pot with water. Maybe you fire up the stove for eggs and bacon. The electricity, the water, the gas - they must be affordable AND reliable. That is why MLGW is asking for rate increases in water and gas. Investments help keep our infrastructure reliable today and ready for tomorrow. The proposed increase will not affect all customers the same way. Click here for details: https://t.co/MwrLncvuVe.

📢 Community Forum Update

Due to unforeseen circumstances, the What's Beneath Memphis? Community Forum scheduled for Thursday, October 22, at Whitehaven Community Center has been postponed and will be rescheduled.

Thank you to @MEM_Parks , @CityOfMemphis , and @MLGW for helping us engage the community in conversations about the Memphis aquifer and our region's groundwater resources.

Hi, to lessen the impact on residential customers, the residential rate percentage
increase will be smaller than the commercial and industrial class percentage increase. MLGW is creating a new rate structure for data centers that will increase their water rates by 30%.
Our Unbroken Commitment to Affordability
Even with these changes, MLGW is projected to remain one of the lowest-cost three-service

#MLGW uses drone pilots to inspect overhead electric equipment. It is a more efficient way to assess our infrastructure so we can get in and make repairs/replace equipment. Working like this has helped us cut the number of outages in the Orange Mound area by around 50%! Drone pilots work M-F during regular business hours; they carry ID and drive vehicles that say "MLGW contractor" on the side. Customers call call 544-6549 to verify an MLGW drone pilot is working in their neighborhood.
