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.
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.
MS. TRITLE CALLED AND STATED THAT HER WATER HAD BEEN SHUT OFF AND WANTED TO TALK TO MIKE PHILLIPS.
Mr. David Randolph (of IIG, Inc.) stopped in to complain that his water was shut off due to delinquency on a $30.00 acct. The shutoff cost him over $600.00 in loss of production. Mr. Randolph stated the shutoff could potentially have cost him machinery of plus pose an environmental hazard.
Ms. Jane Fedorky, 3201 S. Tapps Turn Road, called and requested that the water credit be extended through at least September 1999 to account for the extremely dry weather this year.
Letter was received from Mr. Johnson requesting relief from USB for inordinately high water bill received in January 2001 for water lost at 8615 S. Fairfax Road (aircraft storage hangar on grounds of Monroe Co. Airport.
Mr. Waters has called and visited numerous times. He feels he should be credited $50 because he was on vacation and did not use that amount of water. His meter was tested and no problems were found. Mr. Waters told that he could not be credited that amount. He wants to appeal to Mike Phillips when he returns.
Mr. Morgan talked to Paula Dodds re. his water bill. He had water disconnected and then reconnected in 1/02. He was just billed the $18 in May and wants to complain about that. He also wants to complain about the stormwater charge.
Mr. Yost stated that he requested that water be turned off in October 2001; however, he received and paid bills for next five months. He is requesting that he be refunded the amount of these payments ($59.20).
