Camano Water Association provides a variety of convenient options for paying your water bill, ensuring that every member can choose a method that works best for them.
1. Automatic Bill Payment:
You can set up your bimonthly water bill payment as an automatic deduction from your checking or savings account.
Advantages of the automatic payment plan
- The service is free.
- You save the cost of checks, envelopes, and stamps.
- You save the time spent writing and mailing a check.
- You never need to worry about forgetting a payment or mailing it on time. Your check will not be lost or delayed in the mail.
- You can ensure your payment is never late.
- Your water bill is paid automatically from your bank account.
- This is especially helpful when you travel.
How does it work?
You authorize the bimonthly payment to be made from your bank account. You still receive a statement from Camano Water Association showing the current charges, but the statement will say “Do Not Pay – Automatic Payment.” Your bank statement will serve as proof of payment.
The payment is taken on the 20th of each billing month.
Continue to pay by check (or cash in person) until your water bill says “Do Not Pay – Automatic Payment.”
