Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!
Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!
Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.
So, how’s it going?
Somewhat related, but not really - Had our first watercare bill come through, and its 0. Apparently the previous reading was an actual reading, and so was this one, and the start and end readings are the same - Anyone with some experience with something like this?
I did read that you get “0” bills when they have previously estimated too high, but a bit stumped as the bill says the starting reading was an actual reading too.
Maybe it has something to do with the fact that the house was sitting empty for a while before we moved in? (as in probably >6 months).
I had a leak in January that perfectly lined up with an actual reading. The estimated bill afterward was so high that the next actual reading was a few hundred dollars into the negative. I’d paid it because I wasn’t sure if their leak allowance would cover it, but it did so we haven’t had to pay again since, which is nice I guess.
Pretty sure we’ll be back up to zero dollars this month.
Pretty normal to have some “Zero” readings then I’m assuming? (Though your leak wouldn’t be classed as normal! :) )
