We understand our customers cannot always afford the<br />
minimum payment amounts required to manage their<br />
account. Accordingly, we will negotiate arrangements<br />
based on what our customers can reasonably afford to pay.<br />
With our individual case management approach, we will<br />
ensure that each customer’s needs are appropriately and<br />
sensitively addressed. Our customers are invited to contact<br />
our team at any time to discuss their situation.<br />
Arrange and save<br />
The Arrange and Save program is designed to reward<br />
customers for continually meeting their arrangements.<br />
After customers make a set number of payments, we will<br />
credit the customer’s account to the value of one payment.<br />
If the customer continues to meet their arrangement over<br />
a period of time, we will review the account and adjust<br />
the balance where appropriate.<br />
Smart homes<br />
Smart Homes is a joint initiative between <strong>Yarra</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> <strong>Water</strong><br />
and Department of Human Services, whereby eligible home<br />
owners receive a FREE water audit by a <strong>Yarra</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> <strong>Water</strong><br />
licensed plumber. Our plumber will conduct a water<br />
efficiency audit of the household, carrying out work where<br />
needed to assist in reducing the households’ overall<br />
ongoing water bills.
