Connect Utilities

Getting Turned On Has Never Been Easier!

As I sat on the floor of my first apartment, the theme song to Gilligan’s Island ran through my head…..No phones, no lights, no motor cars, not a single luxury….

Like many new to New York, I had no idea who to contact to get the basic services. Who handled the electric and gas? Was one phone company better than another? Which cable service would give the best deal? Hours spent in the corner phone booth trying to get all of the utilities turned proved to be almost as stressful as getting the apartment in the first place.

Luckily, New Yorkers now have access to a brilliant service called Connect Utilities Inc. With Connect Utilities, you simply go online at http://www.connectutilities.com/ or call them on their toll free number and you can set up new utility accounts or switch existing accounts. They handle everything for you; phone, internet, electric, gas, cable television even digital TV! It really couldn’t be easier.
