One of the most tangible benefits of being a cooperative member is capital credits – also known as, cash back or the "REMC check."

Built by the community we serve, we share our excess revenue back with our members, which sets us apart from investor-owned and municipal electric companies. When Noble REMC is in a financial position to do so – as it has been for nearly 30 years – our members receive a refund check in early December, representing the prorated amount between the actual cost of service and the margin for a given year. 

This cash back to our members totals more than $14 million since the mid-1990s, a sign of the cooperative's financial strength and stability.

Some refunds are returned to the cooperative because we do not have a current mailing address or contact information for a former member.

To see if you are on the list, simply enter your name and search our records for all unclaimed capital credits.
