A Customer-Centered Approach at Mishawaka Utilities
At Mishawaka Utilities, we’re not just in the business of providing essential services like water, wastewater, and electricity. We’re in the business of serving people—our neighbors, friends, and community members. Customer service isn’t just a department here; it’s the heart of everything we do.
I’ve always believed that good customer service starts with understanding that every interaction matters. Whether it’s resolving a billing question, restoring power during a storm, or helping a new family establish service in their home, our team is committed to providing service that’s not only efficient but also personal.
Recently, I had the opportunity to spend time with our Mishawaka Utilities Business Office team, and I was struck by the dedication and professionalism they bring to their work. From the front-line staff at the counter to those working behind the scenes, this team takes immense pride in being problem-solvers and ambassadors of our city.
A Local Advantage
One of the unique advantages of Mishawaka Utilities is that we’re locally owned and operated. Unlike larger, regional utilities, we’re accountable to you—our residents and businesses. This local connection allows us to be more responsive and flexible in meeting your needs.
When you call us, you’re not routed through a distant call center. You’re speaking with someone right here in Mishawaka who understands our community and is invested in its success. That local touch makes a difference, and it’s something we’re incredibly proud of.
Meeting Modern Expectations
Of course, the world is changing, and so are the ways people expect to interact with their utility providers. We recognize the importance of convenience and accessibility, which is why we’ve been working to enhance our digital services.
Our online customer portal allows you to pay bills, view usage, and manage your account with just a few clicks. For those who prefer a more personal touch, our in-office staff is always available to assist. It’s all about giving you options and making your experience as seamless as possible.
Reliability You Can Count On
While customer service is a cornerstone of our mission, it’s equally important to talk about the reliability of our services. Mishawaka Utilities Electric (MUE) consistently delivers power at rates that are approximately 40% lower than neighboring providers, with a level of reliability that sets us apart.
This combination of affordability and dependability isn’t an accident. It’s the result of careful planning, smart investments, and a commitment to putting our customers first.
Looking Ahead
As we look to the future, we’re excited to continue finding ways to better serve you. This means listening to your feedback, investing in infrastructure, and staying ahead of trends in the utility industry.
We’re also exploring ways to expand our services to new areas as Mishawaka grows. We firmly believe that the values of quality, affordability, and outstanding service should extend to every part of our community.
A Commitment to Service
At the end of the day, our mission is simple: to provide you with the best possible service, backed by the kind of care and dedication you can only find in a community like Mishawaka.
I want to personally thank you for your trust in Mishawaka Utilities. It’s an honor to serve you, and I’m proud of the work our team does every day to make sure you have access to the services that power your homes, businesses, and lives.
As always, we welcome your thoughts and suggestions. Together, we’ll keep building a utility system that reflects the values and spirit of the Princess City.
