Energy & Water Ombudsman NSW - Free, Independent Complaints Service

From 1 July 2026, the Energy & Water Ombudsman NSW (EWON) will provide irrigation customers access to a free, fair and independent pathway for resolving complaints related to access to water supply and service delivery. From this time, any customer will be able to make a complaint using EWON’s online complaint form or via their free call number, 1800 246 545.

In this customer
fact sheet EWON outlines:

  • Who can make a complaint 
  • Issues that EWON can assist customers with (eg. service complaints, water access, billing disputes, metering, and more) 
  • Matters that fall outside EWON's jurisdiction (eg. Government policy, criminal matters, setting of prices or charges, Governance or internal decision making of irrigation corporations). 


EWON has a 'no wrong door approach' for matters that it can’t assist customers with. In such cases, it will refer customers to the most appropriate alternative organisation. This EWON customer fact sheet provides more information. 


For more information on irrigation-related complaints, visit EWON's webpage.

All our customers have the right to contact EWON at any time for independent advice and assistance.


However, we do hope you will contact us directly to allow us the opportunity to rectify any issues.
