whippet 99 2,613 Posted December 29, 2012 Report Share Posted December 29, 2012 now i deal with household bills,...i had a water and sewage bill come through today , and for 6 months it was £240. 14p so i wrote a cheque out ready to post off to them.......anyway - before xmas i was talking to brother in law and we were discussing bills and he said hes never paid a water bill in his life ......he also said there is nothing they can do ....they cant cut you off .....through human rights they are not allowed to do it , obviously with kids and all that so i believe him ... tonight i said to my other halfs friend how much my water bill is and she said i dont know if thats about right or not as she hasnt paid a water bill for 13 years.... im thinking why the feck should i if no one else is ......and what boils my p$ss is the brother in law is loaded and my mrs mate is always out on the piss ,.......so its not like they cant afford it.. after asking what did they do they just sent letters out all the time and once had a bloke come out she said.... does any one else not pay there water and sewage bill.......and anyone know the legalities ......? i and me other half allways paid our ways and i think she must of missed a bill and thats why we had a bill for six months ,.......just makes you think why should we when others get theres for free.....!

Carraghs Gem 1,675 Posted December 29, 2012 Report Share Posted December 29, 2012 c**t in law has a way around paying waterbill he was cut off last year or year before for several months and all they do when they cut you off is turn it off at the road outside your house or farm... Well just put your hand in and turn it on in the evenings and off again in mornings on a weekday as they have employees paid to check your still switched off and they usually work 8 at the earliest to 6at the latest... No water meter though here as of yet. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
