Water Direct
Clients should be aware that even with a 100 per cent council tax reduction, they are still liable to pay at least 75 per cent of their water charges. Water Direct allows debts and current charges for water use to be paid through deductions to the client’s benefits.
The scheme can protect a client from increasing debt through water and sewerage charges going to summary warrant. The scheme does not require court action and so avoids statutory additions from being added to the debt.
