Authorizing a third party to manage your account
Not enough hours in the day to manage all your invoices, including your electricity bill? That is just one of the many reasons to authorize a third party to manage your account.
As the person responsible for your company’s electricity service contract or as the account manager, you can go to your Customer Space and designate a third party—an administrative assistant, an accountant or a company—to access your account details (consent) or act on your behalf in dealings with Hydro-Québec (proxy).
Designate an authorized representative in just a few simple steps
Go to your Customer Space, select the type of authorization (proxy or consent) and specify the powers you are granting the individual or company (obtain information, manage your account, update the details in your customer file, notify Hydro-Québec of a move, etc.) and the expiry date of the authorization.
You will then receive a confirmation of authorization. The individual or company you designated will also receive one.
