Default Drought on the way

There's no charge here in the South West Water Authority area for meter
installation.
But we're still the highest rated water area in the whole country because
we've had to pay to clean the beaches that holidaymakers use :-)

No charge for fitting a meter in the Anglian Water region either. Up to six
months waiting list. Anglian's policy is to fit meters to every property in
the area as soon as possible. If, however, it costs more, the customer can
go back to single standing charge rate with no penalty.

I live on my own (plus dog of course), so elected for Anglian's LoFlow rate.
No standing charges, but slightly higher cost per cu m. Last bill for a
quarter came to £24.82. (Without looking and checking, I think using less
than about 80 cu m a year pays to go onto LoFlow.)
