Hi

I must have most expensive domestic water per cubic metre in UK. £6.84 per cubic metre.Can anyone , on a water meter, beat the per cu metre charge :question:

I have had my meter installed since November 2005. I am with 3 valleys and Thames Water for sewerage.

I checked my water meter again today. 12 M3 used in 12 months. (yes I know, I am careful with water) charged £1.28 Pcumetre for combined Thames Water and 3 Valleys
£1.28 * 12 = £15.36
plus £66.80 standing charge (combined both suppliers) P.a.
EQUALS £82.16 / 12m3 used = £6.84 pcubicmetre. . Absolute Robbery.:mad:

Without a water meter my bill was twice as high.

I have asked 3 valleys if they have discount scheme for low users (like Anglian) but they say no.

I think some utility companies have a minimum charge for water and the same for sewerage + standing charges.

To be fair to the companies, they are charged with the responsiblity for the area's whole infrastructure for water and sewerage, drainage from roads, reservoirs, etc etc

Hi Alan....The current Solow rate, no standing charge ,with Anglian Water is 138.46pence per cubic metre and sewage (at 90% of water used) is 210.28pence. A bargain.
Hope this minimum charge doesn't catch on.
