Their telephone service is appalling. After reporting a leak a week ago nothing has happened to help me repair it and I cannot contact their staff because the infuriatingly automated telephone system is going round in circles. I phoned the leak line and got the emergency line automated response then back onto the 'all operators are busy' routine on all of them. Not good enough and how much wasted water! Get your act together!
Posted by Mr Paul Legrys, 03rd November 2008I believe that the Leak Alert Line 0800 028 3399 is not available anywhere on South East Water's website, and when I phoned it at 1930 today I waited for 65 minutes before I got any human response. It was helpful in the end but SE Water seems to keep the out of hours service secret and minimally staffed; I got the idea that she was on her own! Thank you for your page.
