Thames Water had made mistakes with our account and seemed organisationally incapable of engaging with us. It was only when we contacted CCW did we actually get answers. It was relatively straightforward to contact CCW, and they kept in touch throughout the process. Without CCW’s involvement I’m fairly sure that Thames Water would still be ignoring us.

Ella Wedgwood at CCW has been exceptional in supporting me with my complaint to TW. She has been incredibly kind, patient, and approachable throughout the process, always taking the time to explain things clearly and ensure I felt supported. Alongside her warmth and understanding, Ella is highly professional and extremely knowledgeable, giving me confidence that my complaint was being handled properly. She has made what could have been a very stressful situation much easier, and she is a real credit to CCW.

I don’t feel listened to, there were 3 main things that were done by South East Water that were illegal…
1. Miss sold insurance with Homeserve
2 .Issued with a W4 when I wasn’t at the property (with the wrong address on), the W4 is a legal document that should have been given to me personally and several checks in the house should have been done.
3. I was never sent the recorded conversations that I had with South East water even though I asked for them several times and it is a legal requirement.

I reported the leak on July 11th and they didn’t return to confirm it was my leak until 26th July so lots of water was wasted and they thought they were doing me a huge favour paying for this water and that it was part of my compensation even though the water loss was their fault. The CCW didn’t seem to think this was important

How can this company get away with not fulfilling legal requirements? I’m amazed and shocked by the lack of support and lack of proper representation by CCW.

Great experience with Baba who offered up his time trying to resolve my complex issue.
He went out of his way trying to find the solution by sharing his knowledge/ the information I needed, so he could better understand my problem.

Baba’s authenticity puts people at ease right away as he shows such a great understanding of disappointed customer's needs.
He actively listen to what client’s needs are and how best to meet them while always being customer focused and at the same time professional and following Company’s policies and procedures. Thanks

Philip assisted me with a long standing issue with Thames water. He was helpful, professional, and knowledgable at all times. A real star!

The CCW representative carefully took details of our complaint and progressed it through. She achieved more than I had been able to and now consider that matter has been very fairly dealt with thanks to the representatives knowledge and attitude. Do use this consumer body to ensure you get a fair result.

I was referred to CCW by my supplier Castle Water, regarding over charging of water to my business of some £6000 over 4-6 months. As a consequence, we have the same bill for sewage. Castle Water seemed quite happy to refer me to the regulator and having had CCW's response, I see why. CCW have just regurgitated the responses from Castle Water and have made no logical challenge to how on earth, a small business can be charged such astronomic amounts for a company with 5 staff, 3 toilets, 3 sinks and an outside tap!
Unless you have cast iron evidence to present, CCW seem not to have any teeth whatsoever and I wouldn't waste your energy.

I had raised a complaint to Thames Water (with multiple chaseups over many months) who handled it ineptly without bothering to fully understand the case. I then referred the case to CCW.

I got a quick acknowledgement from CCW. The case officer assigned listened to ensure they understood the complaint properly. They then followed it up with Thames Water with detailed questions, which were responded to. I was never able to get such a response from Thames Water directly. The case was subsequently resolved, with compensation paid.

Thames Water performed poorly. However CCW were very helpful in being able to facilitate a resolution to my case. If CCW were not there, customers with complaints that Thames Waters chooses to ignore would have few options.

I have seen the negative reviews and I am actually very surprised. My experience with CCW has been brilliant and I wish to give special to thanks to Philip as his service was excellent. I have had a problem with Severn Trent for months and he got further in 5 minutes than I have in months of ignored communication from my water company. My confidence is high that if I should need their help again in the future that my experience will be the same.

The whole process is drawn out and ccw have basically gone along with Cambridge Water, I would not recommend that other customers use ccw , a complete waste of time

My advisor at CCW was Philip Edwards, he was always courteous, professional, efficient and kept me up to date at all times. I felt that my complaint has been considered correctly and fairly. Thank you for your support.

CCW is funded by the tax payer and have no power whatsoever with the water companies all they basically do is get your side of the story and get the water companies side of the story and position and that's it! They can't ask or force the water companies to do anything only Ofwat can do that and you need to jump through the CCW and then arbitration hoops first before going to Ofwat. So in summary a complete waste of time and waste of tax payers money.
Update. Their response says its not funded by the tax payers? But then they say its funded by Water customers who are actually tax payers they arent very bright...what a waste of money the CCW is.

I had an issue with the way my water company had calculated my payment plan. Having gone around the complaints process with the water company without a resolution I was referred to the CCW.

I found them easy to deal with, responsive and professional. They reviewed my complaint and then acted on my behalf taking it forward with the water company. At the end of the process the water company paid compensation for their poor performance and provided a full breakdown of their processes when estimating payment plans.

I can recommend the CCW to anyone who is finding difficulty dealing with their water company.

DO NOT waste your time, energy and hope with these disgraceful non compliant jobsworths, water companies will pass you onto them as you’ve reached a deadlock, with giving you fake hope, reality is it’s just a deterrence, hoping you’ll give in, then after 6 months it’s “we’re sorry we’ve not been in touch we’re dealing with high numbers of cases” absolute bull bull, then your waiting for replies whilst they’re so called “investigating” these lot couldn’t investigate a fart in a room on their own, what a farce, these & ofwat & water companies & ICO are all in coercion with each other, not the weasels minimum wage chimps, I’m talking associate levels, they expect you to think what they say is final, IT IS NOT, they’ll pass you from pillar to post, HOPING & praying, they’ve manipulated you that much between them all, it becomes to much and you can’t be arsed with going to court, and you give in, well myself, ain’t giving in or up against you bullying jobsworths keyboard warriors corrupt scoundrels, their brave and manipulative in their typing but it wouldn’t be that way in a face to face scenario, I’m gunning for all of them, im bringing a massive case against them all, majority including the CCW have refused to provide communications with my data attached for court proceedings to show the countless lies and manipulations between them all, this UKGDPR breach is proof their in coercion. DON’T stop it’s what they want, I’ve been smart enough to store and print all my emails and gather my OWN information on their industry regulations, laws, So don’t waste your time on trying to get somewhere with the companies the utility companies send you too, it’s a waste of time, spend your time reading into their regulations, laws and legislations, I promise you if they can employ immigrants from other countries (which is what they have to do), you’re capable of gathering the information relating to your problem, YOU DON’T have to go through CCW or ofwat or the PHSO or the ICO, this process is for people who really need it, but people like me with the capacity, abilities and diligence don’t need these, listen to my experiences of wasting nearly 10 months, it’s what they want you to do, all a judge wants to see is a story and factual evidence of your claim, be smarter than these and take my advice. I’ll be posting another review once my legal proceedings have been finalised and I’ll send you to my YouTube channel to give you help in your own court case, I’ve filmed my problem and it’ll be available to you to help your process you claim against these corrupt bunch, it’s time to make stand against these large bullying service providers, they pick the wrong person on this occasion to manipulate, and it’s got dire consequences.

CCW Trustpilot Trustponders surely know how to count ! ! ! They dismiss my persistence as “moaning.” But what they call moaning is actually evidence: repeated refusals of proportionate solutions, intimidation with enforcement language, and regulators stepping back from accountability.
If the statutory consumer body trivialises documented failures as “moaning,” then who is really moaning here? the customer exposing injustice, or the institution moaning about being held to account?
What is justice? who is accountable?

I contacted CCW to help me deal with a water company who treated me very badly. They gave me clear good advice and helped me get a resolution that I was happy with. They replied quickly and directly which I appreciated very much. Highly recommended

I have had an on going dispute with United Utilities of high water usage which I knew I was not using and after many months of back and forth and stress the great work of Consumer Council of Water have finally help resolve this. I would like to thank the team at CCW especially Mahbooba Hatami who had the care and understanding and patience to help resolve this. I would also like to thank Mahboobas other colleagues Mike and Ella for their fantastic patience and customer service. Consumer Council For Water they are all a credit to you. Please thank them again.

Appalling at every level. Absolute scant regard to the case. Could not care less attitude. Completely on the side in my case with water company .water company have refused to return the credit on the account. Bullied and harassed. Sent a bill for in excess of £1000 . Threatened debt collectors etc . Refused to withdraw bill which was plainly wrong Emailed the CEO who apologised said error and credit on account. Therein lies the problem . CCW not accountable in any way. CEO of CCW not interested in my case. Absolutely useless . OFWAT equally bad. How and why are either even in existence .

Thanks to the perseverance of Debbie from CCW I got compensation for an ongoing problem with Anglian Water not taking responsibility for a 12 month old water leak.

Debbie made several attempts to get this compensation as they were adamant they would not pay compensation and won in the end

Thank you

I can’t thank Nick enough for the way he handled my case. From the very first call, he showed real compassion, understanding and professionalism, not just towards the billing issue itself but towards me personally after the loss of my colleague Dave.

Nick went above and beyond to investigate a long-running dispute with Water Plus, identified where the errors had been made and worked tirelessly to have the charges backdated and the full balance cleared. He genuinely cared about the outcome and kept me updated at every stage.

It’s rare to find someone who combines empathy with efficiency the way Nick did. Thanks to him, the issue was fully resolved and I can finally move on with peace of mind.

A true credit to CCW and the kind of person who restores faith in good customer service.
