2

Call your correct provider

Ask whether they received the payment. Use the official phone number on your actual water bill.

Contact the payment processor

If it was a third-party payment, ask for posting status, refund options and where the payment was sent.

Do not wait for shutoff notice

If the real bill is still unpaid, ask your correct provider what payment method will post fastest.
