No idea as missus pays it now!😄👍

It's nice to finally not have a water meter anymore  especially with having to invest in a decent RO.

Our bill last month was £80 and some change based on our council tax band - no water meter. Two years ago it was £57.

We get charged for 8 months of the year, so last month was the first bill this year, which runs to December.

I live within the City of Bristol boundary.

Not on a meter.

I get 2 bills a year and just pay them so no monthly payments. Last one in may was £650 for 6 months so looking at £1300 a year currently although next one will be even more as the rises are being front loaded.
Still, £1300 a year for water is a joke. I know our trade will feel it more due to our high water usage but even my brother who lives in a flat on his own is now paying £80 a month for water. Never seen him so broke and miserable since everything went up in April.

There's only 2 solutions for being broke and miserable.....

Find ways to earn more money and keep yourself fit/active

Mindless optimism helps too.

Mine went from £87 to £124 with no noticeable increase in water production. 😏

That's on a water meter on Northumbrian Water Region
