    Thanks for the tip Andrea. Just got mine.
  • I finally received mine on Thursday but they hadn't paid the postage on it so I had to pay £1.71 (71p postage £1 handling charge!!!). I e-mailed them to complain. They replied straight away and I today received a £5 gift voucher as an apology - yay!!

    :D

    Just received my first water bill since putting these in. Its a good comparison as I'd only just had my last bill when I got them.

    This bill is £15.28 less than the one for the same period last year. £30 a year isn't a huge saving but better in my pocket than the water company's I think :)

    Hiya

    The proper url is ok now since the profanity filter's been changed so I've modified my original post.

    The actual link is:

    https://vault2.secured-url.com/stwatersmart/index.asp

    See if it works this time. :)

    Sent off for one, and will see if it works. Don't mind saving water, but I really can't see Severn Trent reducing our water bills though. :-/
    I'm back after a break :money:

    I tried to apply for one of the save a flush bags but it wouldn't work - I guess because I'm outside the area. ???

    However, I contacted Mid Kent Water (I live in Maidstone) and they told me they do give them out to anyone who asks if you are one of their customers - turns out I'm not ( :-[ boy did I feel an idiot!) however, they gave me the email address of Southern Water (my supplier) who sent three in the post on my request - hooray! ;D

    It seems that nearly all suppliers will give these bags out for free, but you have to ask first!

    Thanks for the idea,
    Julia

    Just tried again and it worked ??? - I now have a further two in the post to me - ah well - Mum and Dad can have these ones! :D

    Maybe when I tried last time there was just a bug in the works - I noticed that grittyhubcap had a problem recently too...
