The problem was discovered quickly, a leak on my private supply pipe. I received clear advice on how to proceed.
They forwarded information on companies who would repair the pipe.
I really appreciated their help.

Excellent service by Wesley at Severn Trent

After a poor repair by contractors yesterday, which caused us to have no water, a very lovely man called Wesley from Severn Trent came this morning to Oadby. He explained the problem and then spent a few hours working very hard to fix it. Wesley was so helpful, professional and conscientious making sure the job was done correctly. I was very impressed with the service I received today. Ref: 14405812

Severn Trent is charging astronomical…

Severn Trent is charging astronomical bills!

We emailed many times. But no help!

On average, a household with 2 adults consumes between 6 m³ and 9 m³ of water per month.But Severn Trent is charging us 8 TIMES MORE!

We emailed several times that meter number is wrong. But keep sending us astronomical bills. We hired surveyor. Surveyor said no leakage we renewed the flush. No leakage at all.

We are only 2 people at home. We were away for 8 days. 68 days bill is equal to 2 months.

Should be 15m³ to 22m³ maximum

But bill says 117m³

Which is 8 times more water!!!

I will escalate this issue to my lawyer if this issue doesn’t get solved. Water is simply source of life for every organism. Even the cost of lawyer would be much cheaper than “water cost” for me. hahaha
