Paying your water bill is an essential part of being a responsible resident of Haltom City. The city’s water department and utility billing office make it easy to pay your bill through a variety of convenient options. In this article we’ll walk through the different ways Haltom City allows residents to pay their water bills from online payments to paying in person.
Online Payments Through the Payment Portal
The easiest way for many Haltom City residents to pay their water bill is through the online payment portal. You can access the portal through the Haltom City Utility Billing website. From the home page find and click on the link to the “Payment Portal.”
Once you set up an account on the portal, you can securely pay your water bill online 24/7. The portal accepts Visa, MasterCard, American Express, and Discover cards. You can also store your payment information to quickly pay future bills.
Online payments through the portal let you skip the hassle of writing and mailing checks or visiting City Hall. The ability to set up automatic payments also helps avoid late fees if you ever forget a due date.
Pay In-Person at City Hall
For those who prefer to pay their Haltom City water bill in person, you can visit City Hall during business hours. The Utility Billing department is open Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM.
City Hall is located at 4801 Haltom Road in Haltom City. When you arrive, let the receptionist know you need to pay your water bill. They will direct you to the Utility Billing department to make your payment.
The Utility Billing department accepts cash, checks, money orders, and credit/debit cards. Be sure to bring your paper bill with you so they can quickly locate your account. Paying in person allows you to get proof of payment and speak with a representative if you have any questions.
Pay by Mail
Sending your payment through the mail is another bill payment option offered by Haltom City’s water department. To pay by mail, write a check or money order made out to “Haltom City Utility Billing.” Make sure to include your full account number on the check or money order.
Then, mail your payment to:
Haltom City Utility BillingPO Box 14247Haltom City, TX 76117
It’s a good idea to mail your payment at least 5-7 business days before the due date to ensure it arrives on time. Paying by mail avoids the need to leave home or use the internet. Just be sure to account for mailing and processing time.
Pay by Phone
Haltom City offers an automated pay-by-phone system that lets you pay your water bill over the phone. Simply call toll-free 877-879-9891 and follow the prompts to enter your account information and make a payment.
The phone payment system is available 24/7, so you can pay your bill on your schedule. It accepts Visa, MasterCard, American Express, and Discover credit and debit cards. The system emails you a confirmation number when your payment goes through.
Paying by phone provides a quick, convenient way to pay on the go or when you don’t have your bill with you. Just make sure to have your account number, payment amount, and card handy.
Set Up Automatic Bank Draft Payments
You can simplify paying your Haltom City water bill by enrolling in automatic bank draft payments. This automatically withdraws the amount due from your checking or savings account each month.
To start bank draft payments, download the authorization form from the Utility Billing website and fill it out. Mail the completed form with a voided check to the address provided. Going forward, your payments will automatically be drafted from your account on the due date.
Bank drafts help you avoid late payments, stamps, paper checks, and trips to City Hall. Just be sure you have enough funds in your account when the draft occurs. You can cancel bank drafts at any time by submitting a written request.
Use the 24/7 Drop Box at City Hall
If you prefer to pay by check or money order but can’t make it during business hours, Haltom City has a 24/7 drop box at City Hall. Place your payment in an envelope marked “Haltom City Utility Billing” and drop it in the slot. Payments left in the drop box before 5:00 PM on a business day get processed that day.
The drive-up drop box lets you pay on your schedule, including evenings and weekends. Be sure to include your account number on the check or money order. The drop box is located inside the City Hall vestibule, so you don’t need to leave your vehicle.
Avoid Late Fees and Service Interruptions
However you choose to pay your Haltom City water bill, be sure to pay the total due by the due date printed on your statement. Paying late can result in late fees added to your account. If your account becomes delinquent for too long, your water service could be interrupted until you pay.
Setting up automatic payments or reminders on your calendar can help avoid accidental late payments. If you expect to miss a due date, call the Utility Billing department before the due date to ask about payment plan options.
Paying your water bill on time every month makes it easier to avoid penalties and service disruptions. Haltom City’s payment options like online payments, the pay-by-phone system, bank drafts and the drop box make it convenient to pay on time, even for busy schedules.
If you ever have questions about your water bill payment options, amounts due, or account details, don’t hesitate to contact the Utility Billing department for assistance. The knowledgeable staff is happy to answer your questions and ensure you can pay your bill in a way that works with your needs and preferences.
