Customer wrote to complain about personnel in Cust. Rel. office and about delinquent bill for a former tenant at 605 N. Fairview (Beatrice Brinkley).
Complaint rec'd. in Spring of 2003 re. large bill for 2016 E. Viva Drive. Customer requested review by USB Admin. Subcommittee
Customer questions $50.00 misc. tap fee charge and requests review by USB Admin. Subcommittee.
Letter rec'd. from Nextwave Mgmt. Group re. former tenant Aaron Waltz. Would like review by USB Admin. Subcommittee. Do not feel they should be responsible for former tenant's delinquent bill.
Owner,James R. Brown, wrote and stated he would like the bill for this property reviewed by USB Subcommittee. He does not think he should be responsible for large, delinquent account of his former tenants.
Owner wrote re. property at 1104 E. Azalea Lane in Bloomington. Tenant moved leaving large, unpaid bill. Owner does not feel she should be held responsible for bill and request review by USB Subcommittee.
Customer does not feel her water bill could be $68.76 for 1 month. She would like her account reviewed by USB Subcommittee.
Customer states he received large bill for service from 7/1-7/31 and was very upset - has not had such a large bill before. States he was told by Cust. Rel. Dept. that he no longer gets summer sewer averaging. Feels he should have lower bill.
Customer was very upset that his water usage has increased so dramatically. I explained the usage period, insp. results, etc. He was insistent that the changing of the meter had damaged his toilet (by allowing air to get into the lines). He stated that he planned to contact his atty. I referred him to Risk Mgmt. He did not wish to listen to any explanation regarding his usage. I printed out his account history and meter readings for him. I also contacted Ed S. regarding this matter.
