West Wycombe Cricket Clubs Leak Allowance Claim

Our Leak allowance claim was very complicated but after a detailed application it was successful which I don't think would have been the case without the support form Castle Waters staff with Rebecca Dewar helping with what was required for the application and then keeping us informed during the process.
The whole process took from October 2025 until June 2026

At least Castle Water has one agent who knows what they are doing

After a few emails and a telephone confrontation with a previous customer services agent who obviously did not know what she was doing another agent named Mhaini Grant has looked at our case and converted a £908 debt and threat of disconnection into a £193 credit. Great job Mhaini shame some of your fellow service agents are not as knowledgable as you

We've been getting calls from some-one saying they are Castle Water, so I thought I'd phone and check, definitely not from Castle Water. Thankyou William Reid for checking for me, and suggesting "who called me" as the number comes up as negative, and from a Telephone Holdings company

Highly recommend castle water to any small business.

One thanks is definitely not enough to Ryan Crawford. I made mistake when I moved out from Everflow. He help to understand their final invoice and give me many suggestions. He is very patient with me as English isn't my first language.
The another big reason I would like to highlight castle water is that they reply my call or email, or any questions super fast. You won't feel stress when you contact with them. That's what I feel in those stressful days.

Having several queries over the account resolved

My queries were resolved to my satisfaction. I was guided through the online procedure which would have defeated me without your help. I had to wait some time to get through on the phone but the result was worth it.
