Wow. I guess that is the difference.  They have asked if we want to go metered.  Maybe not.

I'm waiting to hear from the water board, because someone told me you can get a discount because not all of your water is going down the drain and that's what most of the bill pays for drainage, also I think you can ask to be charged the average price of what other people pay in the same size house as you.

I asked about the discount for drainage and was told NO. They said the water still goes down their drains wether it be down my drain or some else's 😞

Just dug out the letter I got from southern water  it's called non return to sewer allowance I filled out the form just waiting to hear back, probably say no. but the way I see it if there's a thing called non return sewer allowance then I see no reason not to get it.

I am supplied by Angling water and they told me I can have a sewage abatement discount similar to people with swimming pools. I have to prove what I have used so I had to get a secondary meter fitted.
Has anyone successfully got this discount?

CF-yup, me.
£30 meter from eBay.
Took a picture of it showing 0 when I bought it then take a picture every 6 months as proof. Tell Anglian the numbers and they knock the money off.

Just MO but for those that are saying their water company don't allow it. Don't ask them, TELL them you want it reduced. Record all your water usage, when they relent-which they must-they will backdate it too.

Water on the windows doesn't go down anyone's drain, who has a drain under a window?!
Most if it will evaporate, what hits the floor will usually go into the soil or evaporate too.
