Hi all.
Our water is supplied by Northumbrian water and the meter is over a mile away, with the pipe running across our land.
There are 2 properties that have their own (Northumbrian water meters) and 4 with our own meters which we charge from
The issue is, Northumbrian water are charging for the whole amount of water through the meter with no reduction for the two feed off meters, even though we know they themselves are being charged.
Ideally we would like Northumbrian water to adopt the main or at least only charge for the water we are actually using.
