How do I get help with billing issues?
Summary
If you’re wondering why your bill is higher than expected, or if you have noticed an invoice mistake, double charge, or unexpected payment, read more below to get help.
Here are a few of the most frequent questions we receive:
- “Why is my bill so high this month?”
- “My invoice looks incorrect- what should I do?”
- “I think I was double charged or double billed.”
- “I made a payment, but it looks like it didn’t go through.”
- “My bill is wrong – how can I fix it?”
- “Where is my refund?”
What You Can Check First
Before submitting a support request, we recommend logging in to your My WM account to review your billing details. Here’s what to look for:
- Invoice History: Compare current and past invoices to spot changes.
- Fuel/Environmental Charges: These may fluctuate based on national fuel prices.
- Extra Services or Pickups: Charges for bulk items or additional pickups may appear.
- Partial Payments: If your last payment didn’t cover the full balance, the remainder rolls over.
- Service Agreement Adjustments: Some plans include scheduled rate adjustments or annual price increases.
- Local Fees or Taxes: These can vary by location and may change periodically.
Your My WM account also lets you:
- Download and review invoices
- Pay your bill online
- Update payment methods
- Enroll in AutoPay and Paperless Billing
- View your billing history and current balance
Refund Guidelines
We understand that billing issues can sometimes result in overpayments or incorrect charges. Refunds are considered in the following scenarios:
- Duplicate payments or double billing
- Incorrect charges due to service errors
- Payments applied to the wrong account
Refunds are typically processed within 7–10 business days once approved. Please note that refund eligibility is determined after a thorough review by our Customer Service team.
If you are requesting a specific refund, please submit a support request through the "Request Help" button below. Our team will investigate and follow up with you directly.
