The Honolulu Board of Water Supply said Monday it will switch to Bank of Hawaii from First Hawaiian Bank as a location where customers can drop off bill payments.

Starting April 1 customers can pay their water bills at all Bank of Hawaii traditional branches but not in-store branches.

BWS customers don’t have to have a bank account with BOH to drop off payments at the bank.

The last day First Hawaiian Bank will accept water bill payments is March 31.

The agency by law had to file a request for proposals and Bank of Hawaii was the best vendor offering a more competitive price, said Shawn Nakamoto, information officer at BWS.

When dropping a payment off at the bank, customers must provide the teller with a check made payable to the Board of Water Supply and the bill payment stub which must be detached from the bottom portion of the bill.

Customers can also pay for water bills by droping off payment in person at the BWS office, a night deposit box at 630 South Beretania Street or any Satellite City Hall. Bills can also be paid via mail; online at www.boardofwatersupply.com via credit or debit card with no transaction fees; or through automatic bill payment from a checking or savings account.
