Default Water Bill

Received out water bill today and there is a credit of over $15,000 paid since last bill. Any other folks have such a discrepancy on their bill?

I would write then a letter and ask them to correct the bill. I would also pay for the actual usage each month to avoid problems when they do correct the bill.

I'm with you on this one. Lord knows, they will come back with some accusatory reply.... Above board is the way to go!

O.k...that's different than our water bill here but it looks to me like you owe them the $15, 252.73...and that it will be deducted from your bank account

Hope you're covered...or that I'm reading your bill wrong! lol!

Seriously though, I would definitely keep up with the current bill amount.

Did you check your bank account? It looks like they took the $15,000 out last month. Some checking accts. are tied to savings accts. When there is not enough in checking it automatically debits the savings.

I don't believe they would let your water bill get up to $15,000 without turning off your water. Therefore it must be a mistake in the billing.

If you folks that thinks he had money deducted will look at the bill carefully there is a payment credit of $15,445.19 for the previous month and then after deducting this month it leaves $15,252.73- amount. The hash mark to the right of the number indicates a credit balance in the water account. All he has to do is worry they did not actually take it from his checking/savings account!

And you thought the proper solution to the bill was to put it on TOTV instead of calling the VCDD?

My first call would be to the VCDD and this problem would be fixed in 2 minutes.

O.k...I saw the part about amount due by 10/3/2012 with the $15,252.73 next to it and thought it was asking for that amount by that date. Hopefully a quick phone call will sort this out and correct the bill.

Wouldn't this be solved by a phone call to the water department?
Members of TOTV can do a lot of things...........correcting a water bill probably is not one of them.
