SES BW initially denied that there was a business water supply to our property, notwithstanding that they had provided a business supply to the previous owners at the same property. Nice enough people but it was hard work getting them to understand some pretty simple facts.

Aslam Francis concluded my complaint very well. Unfortunately this issue which was created by SES and which started in the middle of January this year has been handled appallingly by new fewer than six other members of the staff at SES. No-one up to now, has had the confidence and professionalism to deal with this months ago or indeed to observe that the issue was based on faulty internal information.
Accordingly I look forward to receiving a compensation payment from SES for the severe stress and waste of my time that has been caused by SES
