Water Utility Billing Problems

South Henderson @ BHS South Outbound, Bloomington, IN 47401, USA

Case Date:
9/15/2020

Ever since the new meter was installed, my bill has been around $27 higher. I have called Customer Service every month or more. The only advice they had was toilet leakage and sent me blue stuff to check for leaks. I did this and found no leaks. I am unable to find any leaks in my home so I think the meter is the problem. Customer service won't even talk to me anymore which is very poor and rude service. If they can't help, they should pass you to someone else instead of ignoring you. I would appreciate some help from your end as I don't know anything else to do. Your bill shows me using twice the water the old meter said. 4000 gallons and I live alone. There is no way I use that much. Something is wrong somewhere and if I can't find the problem, it's your job.

I live in a condo area. Each unit has its own water meter and there is a master meter for the whole community. We are not billed according to the actual consumption but to the footage of each unit. Since it is caculated in this way, I have to pay 70 to 80 dollars a month and there are just two people in my household. I used to live in a unit where the monthly bill was $30 to $40 and it was paid to Bloomington Utilities. Now the water bill is quite unaffordable for a low-income family like mine. I just don't understand why we can't be billed individually based on our usage since we have separate meters. That would be a fair practice for every unit here.

I wanted to take this opportunity to recognize and thank Ms. Edie Henderson in the Bloomington Water Utilities Billing Dept. She is an asset to the city and all the patrons like me. Edie has been extremely helpful whenever I have approached her with a query. She is a truly phenomenal person who is dedicated to her job. She always goes above and beyond to assist over the years whenever we had a question. We thank her for her efforts and highly recommend her seniors to recognize Edie too for her outstanding work. She has also helped us over the phone during COVID. Again, many thanks!!

Hi just a quick question I have my name under my current address 321 East University Street and I was wondering if there is another name under that address for the water bill? If so, then how can I take my name off of the water bill? Thanks!

Despite never receiving any specific notice about the termination of the aqua pay system for my utility account, I was removed from the aqua pay program and thus 2 subsequent bills went unpaid, and our water was shut off for delinquency. I then had to pay $45 each for a water shutoff and turn on fee. I do not believe that it is my responsibility to foot this fee when I was under the impression that my autopay would be the method with which my bill would be paid off. In addition, the water was shut off at my house after 4:15 PM, meaning there was no way for me to contact the utilities office and request my water to be turned back on same day if I were to have paid off the balance immediately.

The last few months I have been notified that my water meter was running very high, possible leaks. I am usually 1,000 gallon water user but last month bill was over $140, and today (Nov. 10/2022) my bill is$364.97. My HOA and myself have spent around $8,000 and find no water leaks. Eventually, I got a new water line, with a lot of pain. I need compensation for those huge water bill, the water that I did not use. I called few times and suggested that the meter was malfunctioning, maybe? Any way, I am a senior and retired and won't be able to pay those bill in full. Please help. Thank you so m

Please look at water bills for Dec, Jan, Feb. There was a broken water meter that resulted in an extreme excess of charge to my account. The water meter has since been fixed. However, since this was out of my control and I had no bearing in the broken water meter, nor its repair, I am hoping there can be some concession on my utility account. Please contact me with the best solution. I am looking farward to hearing from you. Thank you, best.
