Fastest route to a person

  1. In Scotland water bills come with council tax, so billing questions go to your council
  2. Have your customer reference ready (it's on your bill)
  3. For a leak or no water, pick the emergency option: it's answered first
  4. For bills, ask about payment plans and discount schemes

Menu shortcuts change often. Tell us if one stops working.

Quietest time to call

Mid-morning, Tuesday to Thursday
Busiest, avoid if you can
Monday mornings and during hosepipe bans or outages
