Unlike in England, business owners in Scotland can choose their water, waste services and drainage services supplier, with no limits on eligibility, beyond being non-household users. The introduction of different water companies has turned the water industry in Scotland into a competitive market, which, as with any free market, directly equates to a better market for the consumer, with services that are tailored to your needs and lower, more competitive prices and rates.
This means that switching your water provider could result in huge discounts on your water bill that could be up to, on average, between 10-18%: a sum that is not to be sniffed at when we are talking about hundreds of thousands or millions of pounds!
These discounted rates comes as a result of a lot of water providers in Scotland now making lower costs for their customers a priority. As well as more competitive prices, more attention is being paid to ensuring that water is being used efficiently, with less water wasted, resulting in a range of new services focusing on this end being brought into effect.
With a new focus on limiting the amount of water that is wasted, thus reducing costs, this automatically translates to a better service at a discounted rate for customers. The exact amount you can save will be down to your individual usage and bill, but it is likely that, by switching you water supplier in Scotland, you will be able to make sizeable savings on your water bill.
The actual process of switching companies can be quick and easy, usually taking around a month or less to do, if you seek professional help and advice from a water expert. This is, also, often a completely free service; if there is a fee incurred, it’s usually small.
All you as the customer have to do is provide your water consultant that is helping you to switch water suppliers with your water bills from the past year. From these, the information on your usage, costs and fees will be collated in a database. Water suppliers will then have the fundamental information passed on to them and they can then bid for the contract, a process which ensures you get the best service for you at the lowest rates. The company working on your behalf can then negotiate further with them to get the best deal, before passing the information back to you, the customer.
Once you have made your choice, the company can then work with you to help move your business from one company to another, as quickly and smoothly as possible, for a pain free service.
In light of this new, competitive drive to the market, more attention is being paid to the individual customer’s needs, with experts working at companies to advise on the service available for you and your business, which in turn will equate to a better experience and relationship with your water suppliers. This could mean anything from discounts on services to a greater emergency support, depending on the company you decide to go for.
So, as a result of switching water suppliers, you will be able to enjoy products and services tailored directly to you and your business’ needs and water usage. As well as this, the new focus on efficient usage of water can help you and your company reduce the amount of water wastage, which can lead to yet more savings. If you want to make sure you’re getting the most for your money and your water provider, then it’s a service to look into.
