^ That sounds familiar.

I'm paying £240/year ish on meter for 2 people.

if yo revert back in 12 months, they leave it in and charge you on the fixed rate

If you sell the house, regardless of when, the new owner must use the metre, they don't take it back out

this is my understanding

thanks

Thats true BlueCorsa, I think though if he was to sell the property before 12 months the new owner couldnt take up this clause or something? So it may put off a buyer.

Ive just moved into a new build that obv has water meter, I will be interested to see my statements considering I paid £335 or something last year non-metered

I thought that if you choose to have one, then you have upto 1 year to decide whether you want to keep it or you can have it taken out?

they do work out cheaper in most case, you do have to be careful though, stick a brick in your toilet cistern :lol:

dunno lol but everybody told me before i bought my house water meters were expensive, and we pay less than all my family not on them so go figure lol..........

i have a bath everyday filled to the top, and mrs has 45 minute showers:mad::mad: lol and the washing machine goin 500 times a day so we are not careful and we pay 29quid a month and my last statement showed we are 78 quid in credit:thumbs:

this based on 2 adults in 3 bed semi with bathroom and downstairs toilet

current water bill is £270 a year

if i put a meter in its £100 + whatever water I use

Average bill for 1 person is £200 a year

Worth doing or not?

Once its in its in and can not be took out when house is sold
