How do I find my SPID number?

Your SPID number, or Supply Point Identification Number, is a unique reference used to identify the water and wastewater supply points for a property within the UK water market. If you’re looking to compare business water quotes or switch suppliers, you’ll often be asked for this number.

There are several reasons you might not know your SPID number:

• You are moving into or have recently moved into new commercial premises

• You have never been invoiced by your current business water supplier

• You are unable to locate your SPID number on your water bill or invoice

• Your property has not yet been allocated a SPID number

If any of the above apply, don’t worry. The Business Water Shop offers a free Find my SPID service, where we do the work for you. Simply enter your postcode into the search box below, and we’ll help you locate your SPID number.
