The City of Raleigh is currently updating its water service system, working towards enhancing the user experience for residents needing to manage their water services online. The new Raleigh Water Self-Service portal, designed to streamline registration and account management, has recently faced technical difficulties that city officials are aiming to resolve.

In an official statement from the City of Raleigh's alerts page, officials have assured users that anyone who has previously encountered issues during registration will be contacted with additional information to assist with the process. Further, the statement elaborates, "If you need to make a payment, you can do so through our Pay as Guest option or through our over the phone service 888-905-3169." providing alternative methods for immediate billing concerns.

Mindful of the inconvenience caused by technical hiccups, the City has also temporarily suspended late fees and service disconnections to mitigate the impact on the residents. This measure ensures that residents will not be penalized for late payments or experience water service interruptions as the system undergoes improvements.

The city encourages residents to keep an eye on the website for further updates and provides an email address, [email protected], for direct inquiries.
