Unclaimed Credits

Broad River Electric Cooperative could owe you or someone you know some money. 
There are more than $172,000 in unclaimed capital credits owed to member/former members whom Broad River Electric has been unable to locate dating back to 2004. Some amounts are upwards of $10,000. 
A list of all persons and their former addresses is available on our website or can be obtained by calling the cooperative. 
Capital credits represent each member’s ownership of the cooperative. They are the margins credited (or allocated) to the members based on their purchases from the cooperative the previous year. These margins are used by the cooperative as capital to operate the business for a period of time.
Your capital credits remain on our books in your name until they are retired. Because capital credit retirements are made a number of years after the credits are earned and allocated to your account, members should always keep the cooperative informed of your current mailing address. 
Capital credits cannot be refunded when you move because they are used for long term investments and operating the cooperative to provide reliable service to its members.
