    We bought this house 18 months ago - water meter already in situ - wasn't put off and bills slightly less so far.


    Have a big garden but haven't had to water it yet - no sun!

    Who honestly finds two identically perfect houses. I have always struggled to find one. With four kids it would affect me more than most ( I have only just found out about the social tariff and I guess there plenty more the same). If you find the right house you have found the right house.

    That was the point I was making - it is so very unlikely that a meter probably isn't going to factor given the bigger picture that 90 % of the country are probably going to have them forced upon them if they don't already have them (just my opinion BTW) before they move out of their current house

    :confused: I have a poll / discussion on Economy 7 / 10 off-peak usage (as a % or total) and ways to improve it but I'm not allowed to link to it so have a look on the gas/elec forum if you would like to vote or discuss.:cool:

    Having had to have a water meter because my house is new build, it would definetly be a plus for me. My water charge is around £13 a month and I was paying £43 a month based on rates.
