How to complain

We’re committed to providing all our customers with an excellent service. If something’s gone wrong, please contact us.

You can nominate someone to speak to us on your behalf if you prefer. We’ll just need you to give us permission to share your information with them.

If you appoint a solicitor or land agent, we'll be happy to liaise with them, but we can’t be responsible for any costs incurred.

Extra support contacting us and using our website

If you have hearing or speech difficulties or English isn’t your first language, we offer a range of ways to make getting in touch with us easier.

Our accessibility page explains how to make our website easier to use. If you have a disability, AbilityNet also has useful accessibility advice.

Resolving the complaint

We’ll work with you to resolve your complaint within eight weeks. If there’s ever a delay, we’ll let you know why, when it’ll be resolved and when we’ll contact you again.

How to escalate the complaint

You can ask for your complaint to be reviewed if you’re not happy with the response we’ve given you, or we haven’t responded to you within the timescale we promised. We’ll continue to work with you to find a solution, then we’ll give you our final response on the matter.

If you’re not happy with our final response or it’s been more than eight weeks since you first complained, you can contact the Consumer Council for Water (CCW) for help. Please note CCW won’t normally be able to assist you until we’ve investigated the complaint.

Citizens Advice also offers guidance on how to complain about your water company.
