Watercare ups charges yet delivers appalling service
Has anyone had similar experiences with Watercare of late?
On 3 May this year, Watercare reported a leak at our property. I employed plumbers to find and repair the leak. The cost was nearly $1000. As it turned out, the leak was Watercare's problem. After 11 weeks and umpteen emails to them, they have failed to reimburse me for my costs.
Phil Goff, in a recent public statement, spoke of Watercare's ''accountability'' and ''responsiveness.'' Watercare's Chief Customer Officer, Amanda Singleton, describes herself as ''a passionate customer advocate'' and being responsible for ''all customer touch points'' (whatever they are) ''in the business.'' After this month's increases to water charges - with yet more to come - it feels as if they're taking us for fools.
