NYSEG's steps

There's no online form for a name change. Call the Customer Relations Center (weekdays 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.) or write to NYSEG.

Open NYSEG's page

Have these ready

A copy of your marriage certificate, divorce decree or court order (most companies ask for one).
Your updated driver's license or ID, if you have it. Social Security comes first, then the DMV.
Your account number, and the name the account is in now.
