Metered bills - How often?

maas

I changed to metered billing on 11 March 2014 and I still havent had a bill through. I originally thought I would get monthly bills but this is obviously not that case.

How often do people usually get metered water bills?

depends on the company some are 6 months , some are 3 months and some a mixture of the 2 depending how you pay

You meter will fall into the next billing cycle for your street,

give them a ring they will tell you when its due to be read

Mine with Anglian Water is one every six months - one around May/June and second around November. They are a bit random but as I pay by DD I'm not all that bothered. They seem to read the meter about the end of April and the end of October.
I do however keep an eye on my water meter and record the readings monthly so I can ensure that I'm not either under or over paying on my DD. The main purpose however is to check for any problems.
I noticed a major underground water leak last year only because I read it frequently - I suddenly started losing about 1cu.m a day (we lost about 40cu.m) a quantity that would have undermined my drive and foundations if it had run for too long.

Am also with Anglian & when I rang to ask why I'd not had a bill at April 1st, was told oh your area is only read once a year & that is July, so now I am expecting a hike in monthly charge as we're now in July.
