Moved to urb in october and 18 euros taken from bank for water which solicitor set up

Now received a bill for 120 euros for what seems to be 3 months

It is 20m3 property and we have a small size bath other than that just normal day to day use

Is the bill right please advise

Also we have fireplace with gas fire built in

Can anyone recommend where to get new one as old one faulty

Grateful for any help

Paul

That doesn't sound too high especially if you are there all the time.

Your bill will have a meter reading on. Just check it on the meter it will have the first and last reading on it

I can't see the bill, however I have an apartment, small bath but we use shower and the rest normal day to day washing up etc. my bill has never been any where like that. When I'm back in UK it's around €65 for 3 months and when I'm in Spain it's around €80. The bill is made up with the cost of other amenities ie. basura. I'm sure the water company charge to have the name changed over, could this be why the bill is so high? Maybe if you contact Hidraqua directly, or alternatively ask your solicitor/estate agent. Sorry can't be if any real help.

If your water provider is Hidraqua, then you can register for online access and view your bills that way.
