I Will try and explain and much as I can without it being to long . I live in a rented large home rurally , our water is private ( we pay for it ) . The water supply is low this year , a farm has been using too much and with the current water it got low ) .
I should add at this stage that when we moved in we specifically asked if water was a issue and where told no . 2 weeks ago the water stopped , we where informed there was a additional borehole in our home so connected to our electricity on our meter and they came and connected it , we found out after it is actually feeding a farm and 6 houses ( possibly 7 ) . I’ve contacted by writhing and phone on 2 occasions asking them how they intend to pay for the extra electricity , the pump works every time someone flushes or has a bath or their washing machine works etc and the farm will be using it a lot more . No reply .
To make it worse yesterday evening the water almost stopped , I’m assuming as I see the farmers up and down they are using all the water on the farm and fields . Meaning me and hubby get in after a day of work with 3 kids and can’t even shower .
Im pissed off as you can imagine . The water was back most of the day today but now gone again .
Since nobody has paid me and its my meter AIBU for turning the pump around 4 pm so at lest hubby can have a shower after working in a physical job all day and I can do the bloody washing , I don’t mind having a shower in the morning as my job is a desk one ?
I’m thinking on leaving it on 9 to 4 maybe and an hour when hubby gets home at 9 pm ? That way the water replenishes enough everyone can use it .
