FAQ

  Customer Care and Billing System
Why should the account number of the water bill be changed from its original
14 digits to 11 digits? Can I retain the old account number?

Are payment methods affected by the introduction of new account numbers?
If I pay the water deposit through the ATM, should I select the bill type as
code-02?

Normally, I would pay my water bill by "Autopay" service. However, I recently
settled part of the total amount due two days before the payment due date,
and found that my bank account was still debited with the total amount due.
Why?

What should I do if the "Total Amount due" shown on the demand note is
greater than the Autopay's "Limit of each payment"?
