Pay your water bill on the phone, at your convenience, through our automated bill payment feature using this phone number (325) 203-4041. Our automated phone service accepts Visa, MasterCard, American Express and Discover. You will need your 8 digit account number (including all leading zeros) and the zip code for your service address. For security reasons, on October 31, 2013, we will no longer take credit card payments on our main phone line.  

Online Bill Pay Thru Our Website

Click on Pay Your Bill Now button on this page to be redirected to our Website where you can pay your bill online 24/7.  Through the website you will be able to make a one time payment (Quick Pay) or recurring payments with your credit card. All you will need is your 8 digit account number (with all leading zeros) and billing zip code to register for this feature. If you decide to use recurring payments with you credit card, you will need to register for an online account under Bill Payment. Your credit card will be charged $5.00 to verify that your card is valid. If valid, the $5.00 will be credited to your water account.

BSUD customers will need to update and maintain their own online payment preferences, including expiration dates or new credit card numbers.

If a payment is rejected, the system will automatically send you an email informing you that you need to update your credit card information. If this occurs the system will cancel your recurring payments from your credit card and you will then need to reset recurring payments back up in your online profile.

*Your 8 digit account number will be located on the top left corner of your bill.

*Please be aware that if you are using an online service other than through our website to pay your water bill you need to allow 7-10 business days for your payment to reach us through the mail. Payments are posted to your account on the day they are received in the office.

Payment Through Financial Institution Online Bill Pay

Many financial institutions such as major banks offer their customers the ability to pay their bills via an online bill payment service (through your bank's website). Normally, these services debit the customer's checking or savings account to pay the bill. Depending on the financial institution, they may or may not charge a fee for the service. Payments may take up to seven business days to post to the customer's account. Please consult with your bank for more information. Payments are posted to your account on the day they are received in the office.
