Looking over the 12 drops plan offered by Hidraqua https://www.hidraqua.es/en/12-gotas-fixed-monthly-quota and wondering whether it’s worth a try?

Has anyone here tried it?

For the past year with 20% occupancy I paid ~€350 water bills.

Am I correctly interpreting 12 drops plan as in the end no matter what you’ll pay for what you consumed and it’s just a fixed monthly payment for the next year?

Thanks!

Yes you still pay for what you use.

€350 sounds a lot. We paid €348 in the last year - two of us with 100% occupancy and a pool, and €53 of that was for basura.

Does one of the quarterly bills cover a period when you weren't there? If so, does the bill show any consumption? If so, it sounds as though there may be a leak.

A simple enough scheme but seems to me only really of use to those who are not here full time to pay the bills when they arrive or for whatever reason haven't set up a direct debit with their banks to pay them, or possibly those on really tight budgets where an unexpectedly high bill could be a problem but I doubt there are too many like that around, or at least I hope not. I don't want to even imagine an existence where an extra say €10 or €20 one month risks breaking the bank!

Thanks! 

Looked up my bills— there was €130 for initial service install originally which I accidentally included into these €350. So the bills should amount to ~€220.

Thanks for the replies again!
