It is so refreshing to call a customer service team and actually receive brilliant service.
I spoke to Becca who knew exactly what I needed to register a property. To save me waiting on the phone she explained that she would add to my existing account and send an email once done (which I have already received) I have called Wave a few times now and have always spoke to professional friendly staff who make the call easy and stress free.

The water comes out of the taps and the sewage drains away BUT.
The BUT is that they now send an alert telling me I can waste my time fetching their electronic bills. It took over three exchanges with their 'Customer Experience Adviser' for the bills to be visible on their portal.
This customer's experience has been very much less than satisfactory. Only a monopoly could get away with such a lack of competence.
My conclusion: much better than the poor blighters in Tonbridge Wells who experience frequent water outages BUT!
