Why is my water bill based on the rateable value of my property in 1990?
Customers without a meter pay their water charges according to the rateable value of their property. Rateable values were assessed by the Valuation Office of the Inland Revenue. Following the introduction of the community charge and subsequently the council tax, the Valuation Office stopped setting or amending rateable values on 31 March 1990. They cannot be changed by us.
