True. They hold all the cards. When we traveled was when the (very large) over charges occurred. Funny thing was what ever the problem might have been, it
alwaysfixed itself (potable or irrigation) by the time we returned and never left any clue that we or plumbers could find as to what the problem could have been. When, after complaining, heck was sent out to check the meter, he found meter over reporting at used and changed the meter. New meter still over reporting our usage, but "within tolerance" (<10% if I remember correctly) as far as they are concerned. Imagine raking off the top of a money deposit or withdrawal any percentage. Accuracy counts ---- except with water billing, I guess. Monopoly has us by the (naughty words deleted) and we pay whatever we must, like it or not. 🤬
