How Do Illinois Utility Deposit Bonds Work? 

An Illinois utility surety bond ensures that large utility customers will pay their bills in full and on time. If they fail to do so, the utility company can file a claim to receive the payment. The surety provider will pay the claim amount and the bondholder must reimburse the surety.

Illinois utility bonds remain effective until released by the utility company and must be renewed annually. The surety can cancel this bond at any time by delivering written notice to the utilities provider.
