14403005- great service from Mike

14403005 Mike came round and looked at a leak on the outlet meter, his service was impeccable, he wasn’t able to sort it at that time due to a third party issue but he came out on a Saturday night late in the evening and had a look and did the best he could!

Michael did a superb job

I have to say that Michael did a superb job. He was outside at a very unsociable hour in the pitch black, but was very friendly, took his time, and was able to dig out the water meter that was buried in the ground under loose dirt. He took the trouble to explain next steps rather than rush on to the next job. Many thanks indeed.

Excellent Service from Rob S & Marcus C

Great service from Rob S and Marcus C (Job No. 14336623) on 12/09. They carried out a camera inspection of the drainage line and cleared out the debris that was causing issues. Both were professional, punctual, and explained exactly what they found and what work was carried out. Really pleased with the result - Positive Experience!

Terrible customer service

Terrible customer service. If I had a choice of who supplied my water, I would not pick Severn trent. I have already made a complaint regarding the handling of an issue which appeared to have been dealt with, however they did not turn up to an appointment for a leak. My water bill has gone through the roof ( we are 2 adults living in a 1 bath property and are paying more than my colleague with 3 adults and 2 children with a 3 bath property), and despite my concerns regarding this, Severn Trent don't seem to have any rush (it's been over 4 weeks) regarding the leak I reported.

Alex,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are sorry to hear about your experience and sincerely apologise for the frustration and inconvenience caused, particularly in relation to the missed appointment and the delay in receiving a response to your complaint.

We understand how concerning it can be to see a significant increase in your water charges, especially when you have already raised concerns and reported a potential leak. We appreciate that, from your perspective, the progress made so far has not met your expectations.

We would like the opportunity to investigate this further and review the concerns you have raised. We will send you a message requesting some additional contact information. Once we receive this, a member of our Billing Team will be in touch to discuss your concerns, review the status of your complaint, and ensure that any outstanding issues are fully investigated.

Thank you again for bringing this to our attention. We appreciate the opportunity to make things right and look forward to speaking with you soon.

Kind regards,
