To ask how much is your water bill? If you are on a meter

[Florence4170]

Just that! - how much is your monthly bill please?

It’s cheaper for me (£23 a month). Apparently it’ll almost always be cheaper if you have more bedrooms than people (always unless you have some reason for extra water use).

4 bed house, 3 bathrooms, 4 adults, big garden (love my plants) £72/ month

2 adults in 3 bed semi £17 per month on a meter.
We have 2 water butts for the garden, we don’t use the bath as prefer showers.

My dad lives in a local authority house and his water rates are included in his monthly rent. This is in Hertfordshire.

Just had our 6 month bill- up £100 this year- fuming!
family of 4= £470 so c. £78 a month

£44 per month for a 4 bed with 3 adults in it. I'm pleasantly surprised that mine is so low having seen some of these posts as my letter always says we use 47% more water than other houses of this size 🤣

As of right now its £5.50.
I do the bill me up to date.

£46 family of 5. Anglian water. Pool and orchard.

£47 per month, just me, Wessex Water, (was £26 two years ago)

£60 for 2 adults 4 bed house. It has gone up substantially though.

Mine has gone up from £29 to £43 over the last couple of months, so if it went back down again I'd think about it!

2 adults was £35 now £58 Thames Water meter.

We were on the old rates system. This year the DD went up to over £100 pm for 2 of us in a 3 bed house. We switched to meter and were given an estimated DD figure of £50 pm. I have done monthly meter readings and we are currently down at around £35 pm without changing anything we do.
We both shower daily, washing done 3/4 per week. Wash up by hand as no room for dish washer. Never water the garden and rarely wash the cars…

£82
they wanted £89 - it is incoming as well as outgoing water

approx £80 mth dd, 3 adults x 1teen. Garden and careful with water use. Suspect actual usage is closer to £55/ mth. Metered water past 5 yrs and cheaper than flat rate, unless you have an Olympic sized swimming pool in your yard.

My water company's bills are unfathomable and I have not lived here long, so not sure yet, but higher than I used to pay in my last house unmetered.

They have threatened that if I don't let them in to read the meter, they will revert me to a standard unmetered tariff. So I will never let them in! Crack on pls guys 🙏

That's been the advice now for years since water meters first came along I believe but even if it works out more expensive you can switch back within a certain time ( you'll find the details via Google) so no reason not to change unless its physically impossible for your property

the bill seems to be related to april to sept 2024 which is odd.

£69 a month. That’s for 4 adults and a child. Daily showers, laundry etc

I think I worried that once they can make up a set figure by looking at usage it would gradually creep up. I was happy with the flat level but probably am now paying a lot more than I would be on a meter.
I'd better not start washing my car all of a sudden if I switch! Shame.

£99 for 6 months (so about £16pm). Just me in a 3 bed. Thames Water.

we have an increase due to them polluting the sea with sewage

Was always about £66 per month no meter. Got meter installed and it’s around £32-£35 per month now. Wish I’d got one years ago.

3 adults in a house.

We are at about 120 pounds a month.

3 Adults and 2 Children.

Knowing what random strangers pay won't help with your dispute, do you think your volume used or your rate is too high or even both?

Have you taken daily readings to see what the meter is saying you've used and compared it to your previous bills? Do you think you maybe have a leak?
