Beware of bill payment scams
We are aware of a scam where people are receiving calls from individuals claiming to represent a legitimate utility comparison service. These individuals are offering to pay people’s water bills. Please be advised this is a scam that causes people to lose money. There are no water bill vouchers or utility comparison services associated with us. If you receive a call of this nature, we encourage you to report it to CERT NZ.
We've taken steps to keep you safe when making a payment
We have implemented changes to one-off credit card transactions to safeguard customers. The changes limit the volume of transactions to two per account, credit card or IP address within a 24-hour period. You can still select and pay multiple accounts via MyAccount. Closed accounts now need to be paid via direct credit.
Manage your payments through MyAccount
In MyAccount, you have the flexibility to make one-off or recurring payments using direct debit or credit card. Learn more about MyAccount for residents, businesses and landlords, or get started below.
