Southern Water is just as bad. In fact they probably all are.
I have had no water for three to four days at a time on several occaisions in the past few years.
Supposed to be on their “Priority Customer Register” due to disability meaning they have to deliver bottled water but in reality this rarely happens or if it does happen it doesn’t arrive until just before the water is finally restored.
In between times of zero water we regularly have brown water or white water.
It also often smells so strongly of chlorine that it is undrinkable, causes skin irritation and soap (such as washing up liquid) won’t foam in it.
I have had to buy bottled water for all drinking water for the past 5 years because it is so disgusting and unreliable.
Useless, corrupt bastards.
I believe the current majority share holders of SW are an Australian hedge fund but owners change from time to time as profit is made again and again with no care for captive customers who cannot remove their business no matter how the company performs.
Innumerable mains water leaks all over our local roads and innumerable sewage dumps into our local rivers and on to our local beaches.
Privatisation and the free market helped nobody but the rich spotting an opportunity to get richer.
Selling off our national assets was a disgrace and this is the end result.
