Notify us of a bereavement

We are very sorry to hear of your loss. 

We understand the impact that dealing with the loss of a loved one can have and we want to keep it simple for you to update or close an account.

You can also tell us about the loss of a loved one by completing the bereavement form at the bottom of this page which will tell us but not other companies.

Bereavement form

Contact details

Deceased details

Future water use

We need to know if water will continue to be used at the property, for infrequent visits, decorating or cleaning, for example. If water is required, you will need to tell us who is responsible for paying any future bills.

Properties in probate or part of an estate

If the property forms part of the deceased's estate, please give us the name and full address of the executor for any refunds or closing bills.

Please tell us who is the beneficiary/responsible for the water account. This will be the name we will use on correspondance about past billing or the cheque if a refund is due

Any other information

Please don't enter any bank details or any sensitive data.
