How to Pay Your Mediacom Bill Online, by Phone, or Mail

Where and how to pay Mediacom

Mediacom accepts bill payments through their website, by phone, through automatic bank transfers, and by mail. The fastest route is their online payment portal at mediacomcc.com, where you can pay when ready with a bank account or debit card. If you prefer not to use the internet, you can call their customer service line at 1-855-633-4226 to pay over the phone, or set up automatic payments so the bill is deducted from your bank account on the same date each month.

Mailing a check or money order is also an option, though it takes longer — typically 7 to 10 business days for the payment to reach Mediacom's processing center and post to your account. If you choose to mail a payment, your bill statement includes the mailing address and your account number, which you should write on the check.

Key Takeaways

• Online payment through mediacomcc.com is processed when ready and requires only your account number and a bank account or debit card.
• Phone payments at 1-855-633-4226 take a few minutes and work the same way as online payments, with no additional fee.
• Automatic payments from your bank account remove the need to pay manually each month and can be set up or cancelled anytime through your account.
• Mailed payments take 7 to 10 business days to post, so send them early if your due date is approaching.

Paying online through your Mediacom account

To pay online, go to mediacomcc.com and sign in with your account number and password. If you do not have an online account yet, you can create one on the same page by entering your account number and the phone number or email address associated with your account. Once you are signed in, look for the "Pay Bill" or "Make a Payment" option, usually located in the main menu or account dashboard.

Enter the amount you want to pay — you can pay the full balance, the minimum due, or any amount in between. Choose your payment method: bank account (which takes 1 to 2 business days to process) or debit card (which processes when ready). Review the details and confirm the payment. You will receive a confirmation number on screen and by email, which you should save for your records.

If you have trouble signing in or cannot find the payment option, Mediacom's website includes a help section, or you can call customer service for step-by-step guidance.

Paying by phone

Call 1-855-633-4226 to speak with a Mediacom representative. Have your account number ready, which appears on your bill statement. Tell the representative you want to make a payment, and they will ask which amount you want to pay and how you want to pay it.

Phone payments work the same way as online payments: you can use a bank account or debit card. The representative will guide you through entering your payment information. The call usually takes 5 to 10 minutes. You will receive a confirmation number, which you should write down.

Mediacom's phone lines are typically open during business hours, though hours vary by region. If you reach an automated system, follow the prompts to reach a live representative or select the option to make a payment through the automated system itself.

Setting up automatic payments

Automatic payments deduct your bill amount from your bank account on a date you choose — usually your due date or a few days before. To set this up, sign into your online account at mediacomcc.com, find the "Automatic Payments" or "Recurring Payments" section, and enter your bank account information. You will choose the amount (usually your full bill) and the date each month when the payment should be taken.

Automatic payments are free and can be changed or stopped anytime through your account. If your bill amount varies month to month, you can set the payment to deduct a fixed amount or to deduct whatever your current balance is. If you cancel automatic payments, you will need to pay manually again, so make sure you have a plan in place before you stop it.

Mailing a payment

If you prefer to mail a check or money order, write your account number on the front of the check and mail it to the address printed on your bill statement. Do not send cash through the mail. Include your account number so Mediacom can match the payment to your account when it arrives.

Mailed payments typically take 7 to 10 business days to reach Mediacom's processing center and post to your account. If your due date is within the next two weeks, mailing is not a reliable option — use online or phone payment instead. Keep a copy of your check or a photo of it for your records.

Late payments and past-due bills

If your payment is not received by the due date shown on your bill, Mediacom may charge a late fee. The amount varies depending on your service plan and location. If your bill becomes significantly past due, Mediacom may suspend your service until the balance is paid.

If you are unable to pay your full bill by the due date, contact Mediacom customer service at 1-855-633-4226 to discuss your options. Some customers may be able to set up a payment plan or defer part of the payment to a later date, though this depends on your account history and the amount owed.

Frequently Asked Questions
