Rant against Thames Water.

I am fuming! I am very careful with water usage, and in fact use much less than other house holds.

For a few years my monthly charge (on a meter) has been £7, before that, £14. Now, they want £23 a month from January! Effectively wiping out my occupational pension increase.

Conveniently, offices are closed till the 27th. Grrrrrr.

That cant be right Jazzi ! Must be a mistake - it does happen
Keep calm - don't fret about this, theres nothing you can do till the 27th, don't let it get to you now x

Re: Rant against Thames Water.

If the water is metered how can they set the charges? Or is this expected usage ie estimated?

Re: Rant against Thames Water.

Just checked my cash books for the last 3 years.
2012 £12 pm
2013 £14 pm
2014 £7 pm

My neighbour says she now pays £12 pm, and she has many baths and showers. As I said, my usage is very low as I economise.

You're right Patsy. Be on the phone first thing on the 27th.

Re: Rant against Thames Water.

Yes cranberry, even after a reading on the 4th December! It looks like £72 was left owing, which they've added to an estimated usage cost of £206 next year. If they took a reading in June and found a deficit, why didn't they put it up then?

I need to find previous bills...

I wouldn't mind but it's trebled...not doubled.

Re: Rant against Thames Water.

I'm sure you will get it sorted Jazzi - we all go through similar at some stage, but I understand your Ggrrrrrr .....
Keep going gal x

Re: Rant against Thames Water.

Mine averages around £26 per month Jazzi!

Re: Rant against Thames Water.

That's outrageous ! Are you on a meter ?

Re: Rant against Thames Water.

Ours is around £20 a month, what's yours Patsy? Just curious
