"JUST TELL ME THE FACTS"
How Does Preauthorized Payment Work?
You simply authorize us to notify your bank to transfer the amount of your bill to our bank account on the day your payment is due.
What Will You Charge Me To Participate In The Preauthorized Payment Plan?
ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!!!!
How Will I Know The Amount That Will Be Transferred Each Month?
As usual, you will receive your monthly Water and Sewer Bill in the mail. The amount due on the bill is the amount that will be deducted from your bank account on the due date.
How Will I Know The Correct Amount Has Been Transferred Each Time?
For your records, the transfer will appear on your regular bank statement. Should you ever feel that the transfer amount is incorrect, notify your bank to research the transfer. A reversal can be made up to 15 day after you receive your statement. You can also stop payment on a transfer just like checks drawn on your account.
What If I Change My Bank Or Account Number Sometime In the Future?
To ensure your payments are credited promptly, please provide us with the name of your new bank and account number well in advance of your next payment date. We will make all necessary arrangements.
Can I Cancel Preauthorized Payment At Anytime?
Certainly. Just remember to give us enough time to cancel your transfer. You will then return to your old payment method.
