MANILA WATER CO., Inc. has extended the due date for the water bill payments of its customers in response to the month-long 鈥渆nhanced community quarantine鈥 set by the government on Luzon.

In a statement released yesterday, Manila Water announced that water bills with due dates that fall within the quarantine period are the ones that will be covered by the extension.

There are alternative payment modes in lieu of the 鈥渆nhanced community quarantine鈥 protocol set by the government. Customers who want to pay their bills can access other payment methods such as online banking and online payment channels such as GCash.

Manila Water President and Chief Executive Officer Jose Rene Gregory D. Almendras guaranteed that there is ample and uninterrupted water supply for all its customers, unless there are ongoing emergency repairs and maintenance activities.

鈥淭he welfare of our customers is our primary concern as we all work together to prevent the spread of COVID-19. Our concern is for them not to go out and risk infection just to pay. We encourage them to follow President鈥檚 call to stay home,鈥 he said. 鈥 Revin Mikhael D. Ochave
