Bogus callers
Sadly, more than half the ‘bogus caller’ or ‘doorstep’ crimes in the UK are committed by criminals pretending to be from a water company, or from the 'water board' - which hasn’t existed for more than 30 years! So, it’s important to know what you can do to check that callers are genuine before you let them in.
Always remember:
- Make sure your back door is always locked before answering the front door
- Check to see who is at the door by looking through a window or spy hole
- If you have a door chain, put it on before you open the door
- Our staff always wear a uniform and drive a company van with SES Water printed on the sides and at the back
- Staff always carry an identity card with their photograph, name, logo and number
- Our staff will always be happy to wait for you to check who they are (we are happy for you to call us to double check their identity)
- You can set up a password that our staff will use when visiting you. Find out more about this and other support available through our Helping Hand Scheme
- If you are still not sure, call the police
