Money-saving expert Martin Lewis has issued an urgent tip to help billpayers save money on looming water bill hikes after one woman saved £400.
From April, water bills will increase from £417 a year to £448 on average, resulting in a 7.8 per cent rise. It's important to note that some households could end up paying much more as water bill rates will vary depending on your area - the steepest rise will be more than 12 per cent.
Despite this, there are ways you could save a hefty amount of cash by fitting a water meter, according to Martin. Appearing on his ITV show, a viewer revealed to Martin that she saved £400 a year on her bill after having a water meter installed as part of a two-year trial.
