Estimate only. Assumes the gas supply charge is about 33% of your total bill — your share depends on your usage and the Nicor Gas delivery rates in effect. The rebate is 15% of your gas supply charge, excluding taxes, delivery and fixed fees. It is paid 1 to 4 times a year, once your accrued rebate passes $100 or after twelve months, whichever comes first. This is not a quote or an offer of a fixed price.
