PAM billing and meter readers<\/p>\n
From Warta Kota<\/p>\n
We are customers of Jakarta drinking water company (PAM)
\nliving in Johar Baru village, Central Jakarta. In the past year,
\nthe monthly payment of PAM drinking water supply has amounted to
\nhundreds of thousands of rupiah. It is too much as we, a family
\nwith two children, use PAM's water only for washing clothes,
\nbathing and cooking.<\/p>\n
We had never checked the condition of our water meter until a
\nPAM dyke broke last month causing the disruption of water
\nsupplies for a week. We were prompted to check our water meter as
\nPAM Jaya's claim soared from Rp 70,000 to Rp 115,000. We found
\nout that the water meter did not function and was badly rusted.
\nWe observed this instrument had failed to function for a long
\ntime.<\/p>\n
Therefore, we strongly suspect that PAM Jaya's meter
\ncontrollers have written down the tariff without seeing the water
\nmeter. It is really unfair and harmful to customers. When a
\ncontroller came recently we asked him to show us what he had
\nnoted so far, he tried to argue defensively and became emotional,
\nrevealing his behavior as a hoodlum.<\/p>\n
Therefore, we ask PAM Jaya to be more responsible for the
\nmalfunctioning of its water meters and to urge this company to
\nassign more polite water meter readers in future.<\/p>\n
