My water meter reading has been over…

My water meter reading has been over estimated and I have been over charged for the last two quarters. I have read the meter myself and have challenged the estimated bill for both the quarters. Previously I was told as the estimate and actual was only 22% difference there would be no new bill issued and I would have to pay the demand. So over paid.
This quarter was over estimated again to a much greater magnitude. I have read the meter and you are charging for 4 times the amount of water consumed and I can't see any credit for the previous over charge.
Your method of estimating, for seasonal users (farmers) is grossly inaccurate.
This afternoon I rang AW to discuss the situation and was helped very competently by your staff member and I hope the situation is now resolved. Your agent had a good grasp of the problem and has promised to act in re-issuing the bill for the correct amount .

Excellent service

Firstly the call was responded too, very quickly unlike certain other water supply companies I have to liaise with.
Secondly, the Customer Service Adviser not only dealt with the issue I wanted to discuss very easily, but also went 'the extra mile' whilst talking with me and spotted another issue on the account that needed to be resolved and actioned it.
