In articles last year I was let to believe the increase in water bills was to be spread out over 5 years, but the way I read this it is coming all in one year.

    Your MSE link looks less than what i saw on the BBC News (19th Dec 2024 @ 10pm)

    *Blue = water charge only (no sewage charge)
    *Thames water wanted 53% increase but Ofwat only approved 35%
    *These % amounts are before inflation 
    *These are proposed averaged (as per the title)
    i find it interesting my average water bill is way less than my gas, electricity or council tax and yet water is essential for life.
