Re: Being charged for everyone’s showers!

Thanks everyone.  

We have already established that there is only one hot water supply, but the owner does not believe that this is a problem as the properties are ‘separately metered’ (even if incorrectly)

The two properties supplied by the hot water system are also managed by different agents so cutting off hot water to one will not get get any message through to my agent!

I need to know how to argue to tribunal that because the properties are metered, but metered incorrectly, that the argument of separate metering is invalid- so that they find I am not responsible for ANY electricity charges. 

A tenancy advocate has also recommended to me that I contract an electrician or plumber to write me a letter saying that I am paying for all hot water charges.  Sounds like it might be an expensive exercise and I am frustrated that that cost falls on me!  (as the tribunal has said the onus on me to prove that something dodgy is going on…)
