I have just had my waste water bill in from Southern Water and it shows a waste water drainage standing charge total of £11.24 and surface water drainage standing charges of £11.27.
It is diabolical to charge for water that runs off the house roof into their system for them, then charge people who they then supply it to.
I don't disagree with the water I discharge through use, but to be charged waste water rates for water I have no control over falling out of the heavens is totally wrong and should be stopped.
