The new monthly water bills have started to flow in to our office which is fine?we have a system in place. BUT THE PRICING!!!!!! How could a property be averaging 600litres per day suddenly go up to 2428litres once Water care changed over to monthly billing? This seems to be happening across 1 out of 5 Water bills we receive! I went to the property to check the meter on the 21st of August I lifted the cover and then had to dig at least 6cm of very compacted dirt and then use a cloth with methylated spirits to clean the meter screen so it could be read and guess what The latest bill said it was an ?Actual reading? After contacting Water care they had to say: We have checked your account and can see that our meter readers were able to read this meter on 16/08/12, when they took a reading of 3572. The two readings before this were both estimates and so this sudden high bill could suggest that we underestimated on the two previous estimated readings. The last actual reading before this one was on 16/04/12.
