Hi All,
Just jumping on here to get some advice.
I just finished building my house, and am about to get the drive way done. I am wanting a double driveway, not a single that goes out to a double, and the water meter(s) - we have a recycled meter and normal meter - are in the way of my double driveway.
Naturally I called a plumber to come move them. Got quoted a price and upon works starting he called and said he cant move them as south east water do not allow anyone to touch the meters other than their own plumbing company (priority plumbing).
When he called they got all his details and told him they would fine him $120,000 if he moved it.
Has anyone heard of such a thing, I am about to call this mob, and am expecting to be hit with a $2k fee to move the meters.
Cheers.
