mammybear Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 my mam lives in a 3 bed house in shiregreen she has just received water rates bill for £471. this seems a bit high to me, i live s13 in 3 bed and pay just over half that. does this appear to be correct or could they have made a mistake, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old_Bloke Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 If she's living on her own she needs a water meter fitting. I pay around £12 a month for my water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chem1st Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 If a low user, use a meter. Check out if you are due a surface water rebate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mammybear Posted March 15, 2011 Author Share Posted March 15, 2011 hi chem1st what is a surface water rebate, i have never heard of it. i think we need to look into getting a meter fitted for her i did not realise there was such a vast difference in the prices. thanks to all.

chem1st Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 There is a charge for the rain which falls upon your property, 'surface water drainage'. You might be paying too much, or could benefit from a soakway... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
