Our bill is going up to £75 per month as of March. Going from £58 previously paid. We have apparently used 193m3 (195k litres) this year.

I find this baffling. We are a family of 6 but the younger kids (2, 5 and 8) don’t tend to have baths and shower when do.

Can anyone match it and make me feel better? I’ve looked for obvious leaks but can’t find anything.

Checked the water meter this morning and didn’t use any water for a couple of hours and the meter didn’t move so no issue there presumably.
 
Well these numbers make me a little sad. We got a new oil boiler a couple of years ago and it from then our bills slowly started rising. We have checked everywhere for a leak and can't find one.

I think we do use a fair whack of water, especially in summer as we have a large garden but I'd guess at a bill of £50. £75 p/m is just mad for how often we all have showers, we avg a couple of baths a month!
 
Well no one has made me feel better about my bill. I’m still struggling to understand it unless we’re paying for half the village…no leaks so not sure what to do other than suck it up and pay.
