Late Bill, Disconnection, Restore Service and What to Pay First

  • Unauthorized reconnection creates a separate fee.

Paying after shutoff

  • Contact office by phone or in person to pay all charges due.
  • Ask whether disconnect fee, reconnect fee, late fee and returned-payment fee are included.
  • Ask when service can be restored during normal working hours.
  • Save receipt and confirmation number.

Before the bill goes late

  • Use online Pay Bill if you know your customer/account number.
  • Use View Bill to verify digital bill before paying.
  • Call early if account number or balance is unclear.
  • Use bank draft to avoid future missed due dates.
  • Keep meter accessible to avoid blocked meter fee.

High Bill, Leak Check, Sewer Impact and Account Troubleshooting

Start with the statement

Phenix City can bill water, sewer and garbage on the same monthly statement. Check each line before assuming the water meter is wrong.

Sewer follows water

The sewer usage fee is based on all water usage, so a leak can raise both water and sewer charges.

Meter access matters

A blocked meter can create at least a $40 fee, so keep boxes and lids accessible for reading/service.

High-bill check
What to inspect
What to ask Utilities
Running toilet
Listen for refill, use dye test, check flapper/fill valve.
Can the billing office compare current use with prior months?
Private service-line leak
Wet yard, soft soil, meter movement when all water is off.
Is the leak on the customer side or city side of the meter?
Outdoor watering / sprinkler
Sprinkler timer, broken heads, garden hose, pool fill.
Is a separate sprinkler system service or fee involved?
Sewer charge increase
Water usage that triggered sewer fee increase.
Since sewer is based on all water use, is any review or explanation available?
Garbage or extra service charge
Garbage, extra cart, bulk service or related line item.
Is the increase from water usage or another service on the combined statement?
Returned payment / unpaid balance
Prior balance, returned funds fee, late fee or customer/bank error fee.
Did a payment return, post late or apply to the wrong account?
Meter access problem
Blocked meter box, locked gate, debris, vehicle or landscaping.
Was a blocked meter fee added, and what must be moved?
High-bill script: “My Phenix City Utilities account is [Customer #]-[Account #]. My bill rose from [old amount/usage] to [new amount/usage]. Please help me separate water, sewer, garbage, fees and prior balance. I checked toilets, outdoor use, sprinkler, private service line and meter access. What does the account show?”

Water Quality, Chattahoochee River Source, CCR Reports and Lead Notices

Water source

The City’s water division says filtration and distribution take water from the Chattahoochee River and provide safe drinking water to customers.

Filtration plant

The plant is listed as capable of treating up to 15 million gallons per day and overseeing five water storage tanks with 7.25 million gallons of holding capacity.

Lead service line notice

The City explains that lead-service-line notification letters do not mean lead is present in drinking water; they are required for lead, galvanized downstream of lead, or unknown service-line material.
