According to Rightmove you live in a block of flats, apologies for late dispatch which will now happen tomorrow so should turn up Wednesday - lucky it isn't eBay
I was reading Martin's weekly tips email and so tried the water meter calculator - we would pay more than double, to benefit from a water meter I reckon you would either need 2 or fewer people in a household or be very pongy.
Tax return now complete, can't quite bring myself to make the payment though, it is too painful so will hang on to the money till the deadline day, it only saves a tenner in interest but every little helps....I think....0 -
Flats are really common round here, (but many are restricted for retirees).
Never owned one but lived in several.

Out of interest, how much do you pay? I think the calculator is flawed. I put in my details, without stating that I am already metered, and it calculated my bill to be just short of double what it actually is. Maybe we take short showers or something. I know we use the short cycle on the washing machine a lot, but even so...Please stay safe in the sun and learn the A-E of melanoma: A = asymmetry, B = irregular borders, C= different colours, D= diameter, larger than 6mm, E = evolving, is your mole changing? Most moles are not cancerous, any doubts, please check next time you visit your GP.

Apologies for quoting myself. I think I've worked this out. Our main toilet uses 4l per flush as opposed to 7l standard. We shower Aussie fashion, so that probably saves a significant amount too. Plus the short cycles on the washer also save money. Add that up and we're probably under by the right amount.Please stay safe in the sun and learn the A-E of melanoma: A = asymmetry, B = irregular borders, C= different colours, D= diameter, larger than 6mm, E = evolving, is your mole changing?

Pretty accurate for us. Our water bill has dropped from £600 to about £250.I'm a Forum Ambassador on the housing, mortgages & student money saving boards.

Peak house. :rotfl:No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?0 -

That sounds more like it. Our bills are just under £200. It estimated our usage cost at £385.Please stay safe in the sun and learn the A-E of melanoma: A = asymmetry, B = irregular borders, C= different colours, D= diameter, larger than 6mm, E = evolving, is your mole changing?
