As customers of West Laurel Water Association, we know how important it is to keep your water service running smoothly That’s why I’ve put together this comprehensive guide to help you navigate the bill payment process with ease.
Understanding Your West Laurel Water Bill Payment Options
West Laurel Water Association has partnered with Nexbillpay to provide customers with a convenient online payment option. This third-party service allows you to pay your water bill using your debit or credit card 24/7, giving you flexibility beyond the standard office hours of 8am-5pm Monday through Friday.
Why Use Online Bill Pay?
- Convenience – Pay anytime, anywhere without leaving your home
- Time-saving – No need to drive to the office or mail checks
- Record keeping – Electronic receipts make tracking payments easier
- Peace of mind – Instant confirmation that your payment was received
However, there’s some important things you gotta know before jumping into the online payment system.
Critical Warning: Delinquent Account Payments
IMPORTANT If your account is delinquent, disconnected, or in the disconnection process, you MUST contact the West Laurel Water Association office before making any payment This is super critical!
The online system will happily take your money, but it won’t automatically restore service or prevent disconnection without you talking to someone at the office first This has caught many customers off guard, so don’t make the same mistake!
Here’s what happens if you ignore this warning:
- Your service may still be disconnected despite making a payment
- You’ll face additional reconnect fees
- Your account balance plus reconnect fee must be paid in FULL before service restoration
- Even after payment, services WON’T be reconnected unless you contact the office
