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 want to shut off water at 2 locations. 1256 and 1300 s college mall rd. Account numbers 39453-017 and 39454-016 to be shut off ASAP. These are seasonal accounts. Thanks, Mike Rogers, phone 812-331-0540.
I have contacted the water department and asked to speak with manager to no avail. I have only ever contacted the water dept. by phone. Never was told services had to be shut off via a form. I left Bloomington and the address 7/1, but billed until October. Someone was able to imitate services at the address without me being contacted. I'd like to discuss this with someone that can assist.
Water bill overpriced
Water is currently running on the toilet always draining the overflow. Also toliet top lid broke when trying to figure out issues
We were overcharged for water this month. The SA Customer Portal Dashboard says we consumed 1,774 gallons of water from August 2-September 1, and the bill claims we consumed 3,000 gallons.
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.
Water was turned off today (2/14) with an amount shown for $406.39. Bill was paid in the amount of $317.00 (2/7)
2 pipes busted in my apartments due to the copper pipes and the cold which resulted to 50 gallons being added to my water bill. First I was wanting to see if we could get some of the taken off cause it wasn’t our fault and set up a payment plan if I do have to pay the increased amount.
