Is Bournemouth Water legit?

Legit, mixed reviews

There is no doubt Bournemouth Water is the real supplier from Poole to Salisbury, and since no household there can switch, you are stuck with it when a bill goes wrong. Estimated readings are the usual sore point: until someone reads the meter, you may pay for a guess, not for the water you used.

What we checked

  • Trading name of South West Water
  • Part of Pennon Group since 2015
  • Ratings on other review websites: 1.5/5

Watch out for

  • A bill built on estimated readings because the meter has not been read for months.
  • A leaking supply pipe on your property, and a dispute over who pays to fix it.
  • A road or pavement left dug up long after work on your supply.

Bournemouth Water bill based on a guessed reading?

We help you write it, it gets its own public page, and you can have it sent to Bournemouth Water as a formal letter.

Supply off or a bill to dispute? Start your complaint here at the same time, and we send it to Bournemouth Water by email, social media and printed letters.

Why is my Bournemouth Water bill so high?

A Bournemouth Water bill usually goes up because of higher use, a leak on your side of the meter, an estimated reading followed by a catch-up bill, or the yearly change in charges. Compare the readings and dates on your bill with the meter itself; if the meter keeps moving while no water is running, you may have a leak. Give an actual reading through MyAccount or on 01202 590059, and ask Bournemouth Water to recheck the bill against it. If your home has no meter, ask whether switching to one could lower the bill.

Bill far above what your meter shows? We help you write the query in minutes, with every reading, date and amount laid out side by side.
