Nottingham and Nottinghamshire residents could be eligible for up to a 90% reduction on their water bills. Severn Trent and Anglian Water have both committed to providing discounts to some customers with Severn Trent saying that it is offering a whopping top end figure of 90% discount for some while Anglian puts its top amount at 50% off bills.
Earlier this month Anglian Water announced that it would be providing an additional £135 million in funding for discounted tariffs for low income households. There are rules attached to this provision, put the announcement meant that some of its users would slash their bills by up to 50%.
Severn Trent launched its own new initiative to save customers cash. A Severn Trent spokesperson told Nottinghamshire Live: “For the last 10 years, our bills have been the second lowest in the country at around £1 a day, and they compare very favourably with other utility bills. But we know that many of our customers are struggling with the rising cost of living, which is why we increased our Big Difference scheme by an additional £30 million earlier this year to help a further 100,000 customers reduce their bills by as much as 90%".
