Hi All
Got my Yorkshire Water bill here
Based on our Domestic Tariff
Water Volume Charge
Price per cubic Metre = 113.00p
Are you on a commericial or industrial tarriff to be paying £3.17?
I have just applied for a rebate on 95% return to sewer in anticipation of getting a WFP system.
They have sort of "re-assured me" that the tariff will be the same -  Domestic but getting information from them is like getting blood out of a stone!
Don't want to get a rebate on 95% return to sewer only to find out they bump me on different tarriff :(

I get a rebate, but you really need to separate your business use from your domestic use - I have another meter on my  pipe to the ro system. The rebate is only on the waste water and you need to convince them it doesn't go down the drain. Also I couldn't get any rebate for the first year. I pay about £25 a week for all my water usage. I think the rebate is to a maximum of nineteen percent of your total sewerage costs if I remember correctly. Might have been nineteen quid though can't remember.

So if you get a rebate what does it save you?
