Paying your bill is absolute hell
Paying your bill is absolute hell
1. If you opt for digital bill, they won’t send it to your email - only notification
2. When you view your bill on the website, there is no option to pay - you have to find yourself the link to pay
3. You have to fill in details yourself though you are logged in and they should be able to know the details.
4. When finally you get an option to pay, there is no any advanced options like Apple/Google pay
5. You have to choose correctly card type though they can and do know the type by the card number.
Honestly one of the most awful experiences to pay by card. Like I am back 20 years ago. It is just shameful to have such an inconvenient and obsolete payment interface for a company of that size.
PS: happy to hear that this issue is being taken care of. Looking forward to the update and will update the review once the changes are introduced.

Super impressed with the service I received
There are planned works this week right outside my house, and I needed a few questions answered to put my mind at ease.
I called customer services and was connected to a chap called Liam and I'm so happy I was!
He was friendly, helpful and patient whilst helping my overthinking brain. Initially he was unable to locate the job on file, but instead of keeping me on hold, he offered to call back when he knew more, which he did within 10 minutes.
I'm just super impressed with the service and level of professionalism I received. Thanks Liam :)

Oscar is such a credit to Bristol Water!
I was helped by Oscar today after being hit with a hefty bill and being a single mum I was terrified of what type of payments I would have, Oscar was incredibly helpful when I was stressed to talked me though everything I needed too and keep the monthly payments low! What a fantastic person!

I was moving house and needed to provide a recent water bill as part of the requirements for the new house. I spoke to Oscar about this and he provided detailed and sufficient information required for me to get the water bill. I will give Oscar a promotion if I was his boss!

Excellent service.
Excellent service, I called about a meter cover broken that posed a trip hazard. I was amazed when the doorbell rang less than an hour later and a man said he had replaced the broken cover and thanked me for phoning it in. Just brilliant and a huge thank you to Bristol water and all involved.

90's rental price.
I have recently inquire to why my water bill is £800 and my neighbours is £350, and apparently because my property was built before 1990 my water bill us based on thr rental cost then, which is ridiculous.
Out property's were the same size, with the same rent, but I have to pay 800 and next door pay 350.
Blatant scam from water companies vis a extremely corrupt government.
I am happy to discuss this with you, but I feel its pointless. I have already spoken to you about this issue and you did nothing to assist in this ridiculous metric
The long and short is that, if you can't have a water meter and your house was built before 1990 water companies can change you whatever they want, and you don't want to change that.
What i would like a good explanation for why my bill has doubled in 5 years without any additional service? I would love you to explain that.
Send me the link again and I will add my details.
Also its not help with my bill, its an reasonable explanation why my water is 800 a year and my neighbours is 350 for the exact same size property in 1990.
And I apologise for my delay in replying I was very busy doing lots of overtime to pay for extortionate utility bills, due to price gouging by disgusting, greedy corporations.

Thank you for your review, and I’m really sorry to hear you're unhappy with your bill.
We asked for your details so we could locate your account and give you a call to discuss things further, but we haven’t received a response yet.
From what you've shared, it sounds like your property is billed using unmetered charges. These are based on the Rateable Value of your home and aren’t linked to how much water you actually use. If you'd like to learn more, we have a helpful page on our website called ‘Rateable Value Explained’.
Most of our customers are now on a water meter, which could explain the difference between your bill and your neighbour’s. We offer free meter installations, so you only pay for the water you use. You can find more information at wessexwater.co.uk/water-meters.
If your bill is unaffordable, we have other ways we can help. Please give us a call on 0345 600 3 600 and one of our team will be happy to talk through the options with you.
Best wishes,
Lorna
Trudy Is great help!
Had a lovely lady named Trudy (hope that’s spelt correctly) who helped me out with my missed payments, showed compassion over the phone whilst I was telling my reasoning, very understanding and resolved the issue within a couple of minutes. Made a ‘scary’ call feel comfortable

Hi Adam,
Thanks for getting in touch and sharing your concerns. We understand how worrying it must be to deal with a worsening leak, especially now that it’s audible and more severe.
As discussed yesterday, we’ve escalated your case and are planning a visit today, barring any unexpected operational issues.
We’ve also emailed you our leakage policy and an allowance form. Once the leak is repaired, you can complete the form for us to review a possible reduction in charges for the lost water.
We’re committed to resolving this quickly and appreciate your patience. If you need anything else, please contact us on 0345 600 3 600 (Mon–Fri 8am–6pm, Sat 9am–1pm).
Lorna.
Reported leak in early Feb and still leaking
So in BW reply closely monitored with no end date or target must surely be outside any allowable parameters in policy or procedure to stop leaks at the earliest , so this could be leaking for significant time unless BW use their powers to do the work and charge back to the owner of the property!!!
When does legislative procedure stop and sense kick in? NO EXCUSES its a leak and i believe has been leaking fir many many months before
In the meantime BW just keep putting our bills up and ignore areas that would assist in saving money
I walk past an area in Milton Road WsM and in February reported to BW a leak somewhat hazardous as icy conditions, BUT as it sits off the path it involves more issues, as to the pavement local authority do not do anything
We are near end April and the leaking still continues and still no repair
THIS IS NOT HELPING OUR BILLS OR ANY CONCERN FOR SAVING WATER
I have escalated previously but still no repair - so why bother lets just keep racking up the monies claimed from our customers
and recently just across the road from this leak is another one actually from the meter area, that might get sorted sometime 🤷
Is it now time to advise Consumer Council for Water? As apparently BW are high on list of best leakage management !🤷 I will give it a few days then raise complaint further as internal BW escalation has failed
