clairelou_lane | Never had a water bill, will I never have to pay it? |
I have lived in my flat for 9 months now. I receive and pay my gas bill regularly but I have never received a water bill or an electricity bill. I have phoned many companies several times and think I have found the companies who supply me but they say they do not supply me. Shall I give up trying to get the bills? Will I end up with massive bills in the future or will I never have to pay?
Additional Details
Thanks for answers so far. I rent the flat and I have asked landlord and letting agent several times and both do not know. They say, and it is in my contract, that all utility bills and everything to do with them is the tenants responsibility. I have been putting money away each month so i guess I will just have to wait and see what happens. |

When they find out their mistake they will back-bill you for all you owe. They will have it in print somewhere on their company policy. They will pay you back if you are over-billed and vice versa. Keep written records of your communications so if it goes to court they might reduce it. Laws are different throughout the world but basically if you use a service that requires payment you will have to pay if you have used the service.
Mabe estimate how much you should be paying and save that up. When it is a substantial amount .... move to another flat, quick. ;-) |

Get it in writing. Ask them to send you a letter saying that they do not supply you and will not hold you responsible for any charges incurred from the start date of your tenancy until the point you have a contract with them. |

One day yes proberly! |

You need to speak to your landlord and find out about who supplies it or if they pay it as otherwise you will get one hefty bill through from the day you moved in believe me i didn't sort this out until 2 months after i moved in and luckily they helped me arrange payment plans but you should get it sorted before you get a big bill it's not something you should ignore. |

i think you should find out eho supplies you because things like this have a tendency to come back and bite you on the bum |

You are already doing the right thing by setting money aside. Its usually typical in rentals for the owner to pay the water or as in my city, there is no water to be paid (the laws changing though). But I do recall once when I rented a house, they didnt send me my electric bill for six months and by then it was HUGE. And if by the time you decide to move again, no bill has been presented, you have a nice little nest egg from the money you have been saving! |

I would contact citizens advice.You might end up with 2 massive bills demanding you to pay whats owed. |

No bill, no payment. In contrary, you have to check if there is something wrong. |

It took the water company 15 months to send me my first bill when I moved into a new place. they only back dated it for about 12 months though, not sure who paid it before that.
Put a little away every month and when they get round to asking you for it, pay up. |

Yes you will end up with a huge bill and you will have to pay it. This is unless your tenancy agreement clearly states your landlord pays these bills. Check through this carefully as from time to time, water is covered in a tenancy agreement. It is rarer these days though.
To find your supplier for electricity, check with the local distributer (their number should be in the phone book or check on line). You may need your MPAS number which will be on your meter. Alternatively you could contact your landlord/agent who may keep a record. Alternatively you may receive letters for the previous tenant from the suppliers.
If you explain the circumstances, the electricity and water companies will usually set up repayments so you don't have to pay a huge bill in one go.
Good luck and please get this done asap so you don't end up in further debt. |

Yes you will have bills in the near future. I & a few friends of mine wasn't receiving any letters either but they will creep up on you I can assure you. I think water companies have always been the same. To be honest though if I was you I wouldn't bother, but thats me! nine months is quite a while though. Have you had letters for the previous tenant of your flat? If you have take your metre readings and open the letter & ring them. If your not planning on staying in your flat 4 eva don't bother. |

This is ridiculous. It is probable that the previous tenant had service and somehow the utility companies messed up their records and have no clue. Sooner or later they will figure it out. What you should do is to try to get a letter from them stating that they do not supply you with the service and that they will hold you harmless for any and all bills in the future. That way if they are denying now that you owe them anything they cannot come back in 5 years and say you owe them a ton of money. You should probably get a lawyer to deal with this because when the utilities figure out the problem when it's a substantial sum of money they will come after you like you are a thief.
Also, you may want to look around and see if you can locate any separate meters in the building for your apartment. if there are no separate meters it might be on the landlord's account. |

If you rent NO, as the water is provided by the owner of landlord. BUT if you OWN the home or property, then YES you will receive a water bill. They usually send this out twice a year. |

If you rent, your landlord might have the bill covered. If you own the flat, they probably will catch up with you at some point. |
|

Yup. If you're a renter, your landlord can tell you who supplies the utilities. If you own your flat, ask any other owner who the utility company is. |

you need to get intouch with your providers becaues it sounds like tyhey will probaby send you a yearly bill. i used to get mine every 6 months and it was a big bugger of a bill 2! |

SInce the company denied supplying you, i guess u shld just leave things as they are. |

You will eventually have to pay if you rent your flat ask the landlloard as he may pay these and it could be included in your rent if not go back to the solicitor or estate agent you used they will still have the details on file |

yeah when they catch up with you just try and pay a little a month to keep them of your back |

If you're renting the flat your landlord might be paying these bills - you should call and ask. If you own the flat then yes one day you will get the bills. What I would do is open a savings account and put the money you think would cover those bills into the account every month. That way you will have the money on hand when the bills come PLUS the interest. |

You are liable for the bills so keep saving. Keep it in an e-net savings account so you earn some interest. They have seven years to ask you for the money. |
