“…Assuming this letter is legit…”
*************************************
I wouldn’t make that assumption. Wouldn’t any such charges be part of their normal billing methodology?

Every time I started any utility service, where a security deposit was required, I had to pay it BEFORE getting service. Once I built up a credit history with the utility, the demand for such deposits stopped. I'm talking both AT&T and the electric company.

I used to move every 3-5 years. When I moved to a new area, the security deposit was a requirement to get service.

I’m not assuming the letter is legit, and the more I think about it the more suspicious I get.

The most I’ve ever seen required for a deposit, with decent credit, is $250. This usually is enough to cover one billing period in case of default.
