This water usage cannot be right?!

My waste water bill has increased dramatically to nearly £2000 a year. They have estimated my average water usage per day is 23,438 litres. Unless we have a major leak I'm unaware of (under the house?!) then surely this is impossible.

Obviously, I'm going to ring the company in the morning but it's scared the life out of me. Our bill has gone from £50 a month to £156! And that is only waste water. Our fresh has a different supplier.

When we had our meter fitted we were also getting through thousands of litres a day. We had a leak that we would never have known about.
Our home cover paid out for the fix.
it is possible, or it could be a faulty meter?

We don't have home cover for water. Where was the leak?

Turn your water off at the stopcock then have a look at your meter and see if the numbers are still turning.
