Bill Dispute Process

Under District Regulations for initiating a challenge, bill disputes must be submitted in writing and include the reason for the dispute. Customers can now visit the DC Water website Disputing Bill, enter basic account information, make a few selections, add any necessary attachments, and submit a dispute online – directly to our Customer Support team. No log-in is required. 

You can still submit disputes in writing to our Customer Support team in writing by mail or email; however, if using these methods, please allow additional time for processing:
