DETROIT
– The
Detroit
Water
and
Sewerage
Department
(DWSD)
is now
part of
the
DivDat
Kiosk
Network,
joining
DTE
Energy
and the
Wayne
County
Treasurer’s
Office.
Detroit
and
Wayne
County
residents
can make
payments
on their

at 37
kiosks
at 28
locations
in and
around
the
county,
including
24-hour
sites.
All with
no
costly
service
fee.
On March
27, DWSD
began a
soft-launch
of its
participation
on the
kiosk
network
prior to
a full
roll-out
on May
24
.
Customers
may
visit a
kiosk
to:
• Pay
with
cash,
personal
check or
credit
with no
extra
fee;
• Review
account
information
using
service
address
or
account
number,
or scan
their
bill;
• Have
the
payment
applied
to their
account
the same
day; and
•
Conveniently
pay near
home or
work.
The
kiosks
offer
language
options
for
English,
Spanish
and
Arabic.
The 37
kiosks
are at
the
following
28
locations:
•
Fifteen
Rite Aid
stores
in and
around
Detroit;
•
Coleman
A. Young
Municipal
Center
(10th

• Four
DTE
Energy
Payment
Centers;
• Three
DWSD
Customer
Care
Centers;

“We want
to give
our
customers
the
convenience
that the
28-location
DivDat
Kiosk
Network
offers,”
said
Gary
Brown,
DWSD
director.
“No
longer
will our
customers
have to
wait in
line at
a DWSD
Customer
Care
Center
to pay
their
water
bill, or
rearrange
their
schedule
to come
to our
centers.
Many of
the
kiosk
locations
are open
seven
days-a-week."
Brown
continued,
"Expanding
our bill
payment
locations,
conveniently
near our
customers’
home or
work
will
help
them
avoid
late
payments.
We are
pleased
to join
DTE
Energy
and the
Wayne
County
Treasurer's
Office
on the
DivDat
Payment
Kiosk
Network.”

to
reduce

time by
using
