(1) Includes eliminations and reconciling adjustments of inter-segment revenues. Other revenue unrelated to contracts with customers includes revenue from late payment charges of $10 million for both the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022. Other revenue unrelated to contracts with customers also includes revenue from derivatives of $4 million and $2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Other revenue unrelated to contracts with customers includes revenue from late payment charges of $31 million and $29 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Other revenue unrelated to contracts with customers also includes revenue from derivatives of $16 million and $13 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Customer Receivables Receivables from contracts with customers include distribution services and retail generation sales to residential, commercial and industrial customers of the Utilities. Billed and unbilled customer receivables as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, are included below:
Customer Receivables |  | September 30, 2023 |  | December 31, 2022 |
|  | (In millions)
Billed |  | $ | 848 |  |  | $ | 674 |  |
Unbilled |  | 539 |  |  | 781 |  |
|  | 1,387 |  |  | 1,455 |  |
Less: Uncollectible Reserve |  | 85 |  |  | 137 |  |
Total Customer Receivables |  | $ | 1,302 |  |  | $ | 1,318 |  |
The allowance for uncollectible customer receivables is based on historical loss information comprised of a rolling 36-month average net write-off percentage of revenues, in conjunction with a qualitative assessment of elements that impact the collectability of receivables to determine if allowances for uncollectible customer receivables should be further adjusted in accordance with the accounting guidance for credit losses. FirstEnergy reviews its allowance for uncollectible customer receivables utilizing a quantitative and qualitative assessment. Management contemplates available current information such as changes in economic factors, regulatory matters, industry trends, customer credit factors, amount of receivable balances that are past-due, payment options and programs available to customers, and the methods that the Utilities are able to utilize to ensure payment. This analysis includes consideration of the outbreak of the pandemic and the impact on customer receivable balances outstanding and write-offs since the pandemic began and subsequent economic slowdown. FirstEnergy’s uncollectible risk on PJM receivables, resulting from transmission and wholesale sales, is minimal due to the nature of PJM’s settlement process and as a result there is no current allowance for doubtful accounts. During 2023, various regulatory actions, including extended installment plans, continue to impact the level of past due balances in certain states, resulting in the allowances for uncollectible customer receivables to remain elevated above 2019 pre-pandemic levels. However, normal collection activity has resumed and arrears levels continue to decline towards pre-pandemic levels. As a result, FirstEnergy recognized a $52 million decrease to its allowance during the first nine months of 2023, of which $27 million was applied to existing deferred regulatory assets. Activity in the allowance for uncollectible accounts on customer receivables for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and for the year ended December 31, 2022 are as follows:
|  | (In millions)
Balance, January 1, 2022 |  | $ | 159 |
Provision for expected credit losses (1) |  | 59 |
Charged to other accounts (2) |  | 62 |
Write-offs |  | (143) |
Balance, December 31, 2022 |  | $ | 137 |
Provision for expected credit losses (1) |  | 3 |
Charged to other accounts (2) |  | 25 |
Write-offs |  | (80) |
Balance, September 30, 2023 |  | $ | 85 |
(1) Approximately $(7) million and $11 million of which was deferred for future recovery (refund) in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and the year ended December 31, 2022, respectively. (2) Represents recoveries and reinstatements of accounts written off for uncollectible accounts.
