COSC Waste GOG
The above entry has appeared on my recent water bill, with a credit against it. I don't particularly want to contact them, but I'm curious about what this phrase stands for. I have looked on the internet, but I can't find any reference to do with water. I haven't been without access to water during the last 6 months (which…

ES Water - combined water and sewage bill - beware estimated bills
The new combined bill for ES Water to include the old Anglia sewage has obviously roughly doubled the monthly DD, this is as expected. In my case, the increase has coincided with some estimated and some actual meter readings catching up to actuality - with alarming results.Over the last three years there have been a mix of…

Increased usage and perhaps a tiny leak
For years my average daily usage has been 65 litres, starting this year it jumped t 75-80 and has stayed there. I haven't started taking showers more often so I checked the Elster water meter on the road. I even closed the toilet valve, toilet doesn't leak water by the way. Slow flow indicator showed 9 small notches in 15…

Sewage in my dishwasher

When it rains (badly) the water and sewage backs up my drains and pumps up the drain under the kitchen window. Itgets up the dishwasher outlet pipe and also flows down the side path into the back garden. Severn trent have…

How many lives have the bottom feeding actions of BW Legal caused problems for? How many individual voices of complaint have gone unheard because BW Legal have the means to shout louder and hide all the complaints in the clutter of legal noise they are able to generate?

One house but two water meters
Hi, We recently moved into a house that was two flats from 1988-1990, at which point it was turned back into a single house.

Undercharged for Water
I have recently had a call from my water company advising that i have a credit of over £300 on our account which was odd. I live in a house with me, my wife and 2 children but Anglia Water advised that we are only using the amount of water a single person would be using. We had someone come round and take a meter reading…

£100 a month water bill. 3 bed semi, 2 adults 2 kids
It was 60ish for a few years then 80ish now just over £100. We don't water garden, do 2 loads of laundry twice a day every day, dishwasher on once a day, all take showers though one of my kids spends half an hour showering so could be a factor. Firstly, is this almost certainly a leak or could it be that much? I tried…

6 month of wasting water - is it possible to enforce repairs?
The situation: there is a water leak from a neighbour's property in our village. This is not bursting, but a constant stream similar to an open tap running 24/7. Has been this way for several months or maybe half a year now. I understand the leak is on private land and the owner of the property is not fixing it waiting for…

Turns out my wife was paying our water bill and the direct debit coming out of my bank was paying for a complete stranger's account. Someone at the water company had used my bank account details when inputting the other people's direct debit…

Water leak on incoming pipe from road to meter.
Unsure of which board to post this - so will start here and will appreciate any helpful thoughts on this scenario. Briefly. United utilities arrived - told me there was an external water leak between the pavement stopcock and my meter. They dug up the pavement and a bit of my garden and declared the leak on my property,…

Water usage normal?
Just wanted an opinion about our water usage. According to the bill from 1 APR to 16 AUG (138 days) used is 57 m3, which cost £218. Using TW smart meter it's £52/month based on usage. It says we average around £1.54 a day. I don't think we have a leak. Not doing anything unusual just quick showers, washing dishes and use…
