Our commitment to you when you make a complaint
We try our best to get things right first time but we know that we do fall short from time to time. We’re really sorry if this happens - please let us know as soon as you can.
The quickest and easiest way to make a complaint is to request a call back from one of our Complaint Managers, who will aim to resolve the issue there and then. If we can’t, don’t worry, we’ll get back to you by the end of the next working day (Monday to Friday).

Still unhappy?
Here are your next steps:
Stage 1
The first stage is to get in touch to let us know you’re not happy.
We aim to sort out your complaint at this stage, we’ll get to the root of the problem and do all we can to help. We’ll try really hard to come up with a solution we’re both happy with.
If we can’t deal with your complaint when you first contact us or if we need to look into it further, we aim to reply to you within 7 working days from the date we received your complaint.
If you’re unhappy with the outcome, you can request a Stage 2 review.
Stage 2
Please let us know if you’re still not happy and a member of our team who hasn’t been involved with your case before will take another look at your complaint.
In the unlikely case that you’re not happy with the outcome of your complaint at this point, then you can request an independent review by CCW.
Stage 3
If after step 2, you’re still not happy or we haven’t sorted your complaint within 8 weeks of when you first contacted us, you can then ask for an independent review from CCW – the voice for water consumers. CCW is an independent body set up to make sure the customers voice is heard and they’ll investigate customer complaints.
To ask CCW for an independent review, please visit their website.
