We know an extended interruption to your water supply, poor water pressure, other water quality issues, a Boil Water Advisory or sewer spill can be inconvenient - and not the standard of service we've committed to as a customer-funded service provider.
That’s why we introduced a program of Customer and Community Rebates. The program helps us remain accountable to the customers who fund our business through their water bills. The various Customer and Community Rebates are a tangible way we can acknowledge those occasions where do not meet customer expectations.
Customer Rebates are paid via a direct credit to impacted customers’ bills. While Community Rebates are made available via an expression of interest process.
The latest round of Community Rebates were following a review of Coliban Water’s performance during the 2022/2023 financial year. The rebates are designed to provide the whole community with a financial benefit through support for community-directed projects and initiatives.
