I recently contacted Severn Trent regarding my water meter and they arranged for an investigator to attend.

Paul Scott called me around 20 minutes before arriving to let me know he was on his way. He was very professional, polite and thorough throughout the visit.

He carried out all the necessary checks, resolved the issue and took an actual meter reading. I was very impressed with the service and how professionally everything was handled.

Paul was excellent and a credit to Severn Trent. Thank you for the great service!

Paul Scott attended promptly to assess a leak and was very professional and friendly explaining clearly the process from his visit onwards with the different potential options dependent upon what’s found when the road is dug up to investigate. I was most impressed with the service provided by Paul.

Reading our own meter had been a pain

Reading our own meter had been a pain. Took me 90 mins to locate one of three meters - all covered in soil and foam covers fallen inside. Our meters are a long way up the drive outside. What was more annoying was that the email asking me to read it only had my account number not the serial number, so had to go back into the house to log in - no serial number as per the YouTube video so had to download a bill annd eventually found it. Meter dirty and had to clean with long brushes. Difficult to see with light reflection - had to get a torch and then take photos to enlarge. Positive suggestion to STW - include the meter serial number in the email asking customers to read their own meter.

Hello,

Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. We're sorry to hear that reading your meter was such a frustrating and time-consuming experience. We appreciate how inconvenient it must have been to locate the correct meter, clean it, and take additional steps to obtain the serial number before you could submit your reading.

Your suggestion about including the meter serial number in meter reading reminder emails is particularly helpful, and we'll make sure this feedback is passed on to the relevant team for consideration. We are always looking at ways to make the process simpler and more convenient for our customers.

Thank you also for highlighting the condition and accessibility of the meter locations. Feedback like this helps us understand where customers may be experiencing difficulties and where improvements can be made.

We appreciate you sharing both your experience and your constructive suggestion.

Kind regards,

Stop valve replacement

Terry Stephens and Scott Giles visited my house for job number 14392706 regarding a boundary stop valve problem. They investigated the issue, determined that a replacement was necessary and expedited the work to suit my requirements. They acted professionally throughout and kept in touch to ensure the works were booked in and carried out as agreed.
