Southern Water have been wrongly charging customers for surface water drainage fees for many years. If the property you live was built in 2001 or later and/or you know it has a SOAKAWAY, register now to see if you qualify to claim ££££s.
For many years,
Southern Water has added a standard fees of around
£25-30 per year for drainage of surface water (i.e. rain) to bills for virtually every home it serves in the South East. However, as many as 1 in 5 of these homes DO NOT use the Southern Water drainage network and SHOULD NOT be charged this fee. This is because the rainwater to these homes is drained away by a "soakaway" and/or by natural means (e.g. streams).
If you know you have a soakaway, or if your home was built in 2001 or later (when building regulations changed to ensure that developers installed soakaways wherever possible) it is highly likely you can claim back the money you have been wrongly charged, plus interest. So, if you have lived in your current home for 15 years and do not use the Southern Water drainage network, you could potentially claim back approximately £25-30 for each of those 15 years, plus interest.
