Ms. Smith called and said that her bill showed a balance of $48.05 which is incorrect.
Customer called and said that the bill received showed a balance of $48.04 which is incorrect.
Customer called and said that she received incorrect bill.
Customer received incorrect bill with amount too large.
Mr. Leeds wrote and letter was received on 9/8/98. He stated he received phone call from CBU stating that his water was to be disconnected due to non-payment. He came to CBU within an hour and paid his bill. On 9/1/98, he returned home and discovered that his water was disconnected. When he contacted CBU, he was told that he paid the "wrong" bill and that his payment was not applied to the delinquent amount. He stated he was made to feel that he was wrong and CBU was unforgiving.
Mr. Milne stated on 6/4/98 that he felt the letter re. Aqua Pay that was put in monthly billings was deceiving. The letter stated that you could pay your monthly bill by Aqua Pay or at local banks but did not state that you still had the option to pay in cash or by check at the Utilities Department.
Mr. Brinson presented CBU with a copy of his plat from October 1957 stating his address should be 4420 Etter Dr.; however, U.S.P.S. records show this address should be 4420 E. Etter Road.
Mr. Carrico upset b/c he's being charged $10 fee to adjust a bill. He's happy $45 adjustment is being made, however it seems ludicrous when it was CBU's negligence in the first place that led to the original problem (water line leak, CBU read meter but never notified them until too late). Also, he is upset that CBU says it's open at 8am, but whenever he calls (which has been frequently) at 8am no one answers. He feels that customer service should be available at time given on recording.
Customer got blue bill and service was terminated.
When customer changed meters to Aqua Pay, both names on meter received bill for minimum amount. Customer feels this is double billing and should not be allowed.
