I can no longer pay my water bill
Worried about money?
For example, because you can no longer pay your bill from Brabant Water, you can no longer pay your other bills either, and more and more debts arise.
Talking helps.
But that is precisely what is so difficult. In the Netherlands we don't talk easily about money worries. Even though everyone has money worries at some point in their lives. The danger? That you think - and say: it will be all right. Many people wait too long before seeking help. Avoid getting (further) into trouble. Because the sooner you talk about it, the sooner you can be helped. By a friend or neighbor. By Hulp op Maat or another organization in our municipality.
Asking for help costs nothing!

Prevent a shutdown in this way.
You are not alone.
Fortunately, your supplier may not cut you off. Drinking water is a basic necessity of life.
Yet it can happen if you don't take steps in time. Keep in mind that a disconnection can quickly cost between €500,- and €1,000, -. Reconnection only takes place once the arrears and costs have been paid in full. You cannot arrange reconnection with another water company. You are bound to the water supplier in our region. He must:
- First send you a payment reminder at least three times (each time giving you at least fourteen days to pay the bill);
- Pointing you to the possibility of debt assistance from the municipality;
- Offering you a payment plan.
Come talk to us about this. We offer you customized help in 3 simple steps.
Check out some solutions in advance below:
Ask your water supplier for a payment plan
Are you afraid your electricity or gas will be cut off because you haven't paid your bill?
If so, contact your energy supplier. Explain your situation and ask for a payment plan. You will then make arrangements on how to pay the bill, for example in parts. Use our sample letter of payment arrangement.
Ring the bell in time!
