Yep, £316 yearly charge from Affinity for a 1 bed flat. We are 15 minutes from London and on many of the flats they have been unable before to have meters as the utilities all go through the central collum of the flats so we all are still on the old water rates system of charges breaks down like this, Affinity water non metered water charge of £121.46 + a standing charge of £43.20 so a water supply bill of £164.66 Then Thames water for sewage , non metered charge of £97.05 and a standing charge of £55.05 giving a total sewage charge of £152.10 Combined yearly total bill of £316.76
