I have been sent a letter to say the water company are going to cut me off and disconnect my supply. I have paid half or the amount that was due and I explained that I could pay the rest off on Monday. They said that payment cannot stop the action that they are taking. What am I supposed to do in relation to this. Can they actually do this ?
As far as I am aware, as access to water is one of your basic rights, I do not think the water company are allowed to cut you off. If you pay what you owe on Monday I cannont believe that they would go through with it. However the law in this area this is not my expertise. Perhaps another posted can offer further advice.

Last IPA payment made on 28th June 2010 and I'm now looking forward to getting married in September 2012 - I'm proof that you can go BR and come out the other side.
Can water company cut off my supply ?
