As a new member with Red Lake Electric a one-time, refundable $50 membership fee is required along with a completed and signed membership form as listed above. Red Lake Electric will need to determine if a security deposit is required and will need to do a “soft” credit check and if a deposit is required you will receive an adverse letter explaining the credit report results and you will earn interest on your security deposit at a Minnesota State Law set yearly rate. Once you have made 12 consecutive monthly payments on time or move out of the service territory your deposit will be refundable minus any outstanding billing. Please contact our office at (218) 253-2168 prior to becoming a member to verify all information. Thank you and welcome to Red Lake Electric!
