  they had been estimating it for a while and done a proper reading last week.

They send me a letter explaining how to check for leaks due to abnormal water usage at my address. :

£210 ouch  

Anyone for rainwater harvesting ?

Think I will bury a 5000 litre tank connected to my downpipes and stick a transfer pump in tank and pump it thru a big di vessel into some ibc's.

[Ian101]

Yeah the water bill is a necessary evil.
Im on a meter, its just a shame that I have to pay for putting it down the drain aswell.

£210 when u think about it its about £17.50 per week if it was 3 months now your filters resin and everything cant be more then say £2 per week so round it up to about £20 per week

i am paying much more then that i am buying water so you are doing much better then me!

If you have a garden you could direct the water around it, then you can prove you don't put it down the sewer and claim a rebate - in effect the water company then pay you to water your garden
