Westar Energy says it's no longer charging a $2.95 fee to customers who use credit or debit cards to pay their monthly bills.
Westar Vice President Jeff Beasley said the utility has a team focusing on finding ways to make it easier for consumers to do business with the company.
The Topeka-based company says earlier this year, it made its website friendly to mobile devices and introduced text and email updates to customers who wanted to know about power outages.
Westar supplies electricity to nearly 700,000 customers.
