  • 4 Delivering Excellent Water Experiences
    B3 –Residential Retail Foreword Ben Newby, Chief Customer Officer I am delighted to present our proposed Residential Retail business plan for the period 2020-2025. Our legitimacy rests on us having the trust of our customers. In the recent UK Customer Service Index (UKCSI) our customers rated us as the most trusted Utility Company. Maintaining customer trust is the foundation on which we have developed our business plan. We engaged with our customers to ensure they were at the heart of our plan. Our extensive engagement has resulted in a plan which when tested with customers, 93% found acceptable. At a time when disposable income is falling, it is unsurprising that our customers tell us that keeping bills low and providing value for money are their priorities; these are our priorities too and we address both concerns. Our plan, being both efficient and stretching, has been robustly developed through extensive consultation with customers and the Bristol Water Challenge Panel to deliver a low cost, industry leading retail business with a social conscience. We believe in providing an easy to use, inclusive service for all. Through ongoing technological innovation, such as introducing new ways to interact with us, we will continue to keep our costs down, adapt to the evolving needs of our customer base whilst not losing sight of those who wish to continue using traditional channels. This supports our vision in providing excellent experiences for all our customers. Using a holistic approach to vulnerability we will make sure all those eligible for our social tariffs (c12,000 more) get help and we will continue to eliminate water poverty in our supply area, whilst tripling the number supported via our Priority Services Register, so that we play our part in improving customers’ lives and the communities we serve.
