A question about : Water bill for un-metered empty property
Hi,
Looking for a little clarity as trying to reduce costs.
We were selling our flat last year, only it fell through.
In the process we moved to a new house and the buyer of the property messed us about so much the flat was empty for 4 months and then they pulled out.
We have managed to rent for now to try and recoup expenses and will re-sell in new-year.
I have received a water bill of Ј140 for the period it was empty.
Is it possible to not pay this bill, or have big reduction as property was empty and does not have a meter. We have proof of vacant property with solicitor during the period.
Thank you very much.
Best answers:
- Depends on the water company, but some will waive charges if the property is unfurnished.

The above link - on right hand side - gives some FAQ answers. - Thanks for your reply, that's a great help, looked at the link and found supplier payment terms. Looks like we may qualify so will speak to them.
Cheers
