Why the Eustis Online Payment System May Not Work
Official warning: The City of Eustis says online payment access may be restricted for account-specific reasons. If the portal blocks payment, call 352-589-4333 so staff can review the account.
PIN or login issue
The PIN entered may be incorrect. Use the PIN from your utility billing statement before calling.
Account restriction
The city lists possible restrictions such as in-office payment request, fraud concern, returned payments, delinquency, or chargeback.
Missing contact
Invalid or missing contact information, or required customer contact not returned, can also cause restriction.
Bank Draft and AutoPay Rules
How to enroll
Complete the bank drafting authorization form and return it with a voided check for checking or a voided deposit slip for savings.
Where to return
Return online, by mail to P.O. Box 1946, Eustis, FL 32726, or in person at 10 S. Eustis Street.
When it starts
After the form is processed, expect a 30-day delay. Your bill will show “Your Account will be Drafted for” when draft is active.
Paperless Billing and $25 Account Credit
E-Billing
The city offers paperless billing through an online form for customers who want bills by email instead of paper mail.
$25 credit
The Utility Customer Service page lists a one-time $25 account credit for customers who sign up for both E-Billing and ACH Direct Withdrawal.
Check both steps
Do not assume paperless billing alone gives the credit. The city wording ties the credit to E-Billing and ACH Direct Withdrawal.
Leak Adjustment Request: What Eustis Customers Must Still Pay
Important official rule: While a leak adjustment request is being reviewed, the city says you still need to pay 50% of the high bill by that bill’s due date, then continue paying current charges in full each month. Leak adjustments can possibly take up to 6 months.
Proof helps
Upload or include repair bills and receipts if possible. This helps show that the leak was repaired.
Ways to apply
Apply online, by mail, or in person. In-person forms are available at Water Customer Service, 10 S. Eustis Street.

The city says to contact customer service if you have difficulty paying the bill during the review period.
| Leak adjustment step | What to do | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Apply | Submit the leak adjustment request online, by mail, or in person. | There is no adjustment review unless you request it. |
| Attach proof | Include repair bills or receipts if possible. | Proof supports the courtesy adjustment request. |
| Pay partial high bill | Pay 50% of the high bill by the due date. | Not paying can create past-due risk even while review is pending. |
