About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the utility deposit bond actually does

The Union City Energy Authority is the municipal utility serving Union City, Tennessee. Like most utilities, it can require a service deposit from commercial, industrial, or higher-risk customers as security against unpaid utility bills.

Rather than leave that cash on deposit, you can post a surety bond for the same amount. The bond guarantees the Authority that your bills will be paid — if you default, the Authority can recover the unpaid balance against the bond, up to the penal sum.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays the Authority, you repay the surety. The advantage is cash flow: you pay a 3% premium instead of tying up the full deposit. Enter the figure the Authority set and we issue the bond on the spot, no credit check.

FAQs

Common questions.

If yours isn't here, the bond team can usually answer within the hour.

How much is the Union City Energy Authority deposit bond? +
The premium is a flat 3% of the bond amount, with a $275 minimum. The amount itself is the deposit the Authority set — usually tied to your estimated usage. Enter that figure and the quote updates.
Why post a bond instead of a cash deposit? +
Cash flow. A cash deposit ties up the full amount with the Authority, often for years. A surety bond costs you a 3% premium and keeps your working capital free — the Authority gets the same security either way.
Is there a credit check? +
No — the utility deposit bond is issued with no credit pull. Larger bond amounts may get a quick soft-pull review, which never affects your credit score.
What does the bond guarantee? +
That you pay your utility bills to the Union City Energy Authority. If you default, the Authority can recover the unpaid balance against the bond — and if the surety pays, you repay the surety.
Where do I file it? +
With the Union City Energy Authority, in place of your cash service deposit. We issue the executed bond ready to submit.
