We have lived here for the last 10 years. We always pay our water bill. Occasionally, we’ll forget and receive a final notice for our water bill which we will promptly pay.
Tonight at 8 pm, a city police officer banged on our door with a blinding flashlight in hand. Made me verify my identification and then handed me my water bill (the due date being a week from now)
What the hell!
I’m in the US, and they repossessed my garbage can once because we couldn’t pay.
Don’t tell me they fucking lease you the bin
I wouldn’t say you lease it. It’s free with trash service, but they typically take it if you have out-standing dues so the trash folk won’t take your trash until you pay the bill.
Yeah it comes free with the monthly fee you pay. It always fun when people make that argument. Totally free as long as you’re paying the money already.
I had to pay an extra set up fee to get them to bring it back when I got a job and could start paying them again.
Yes. Pretty much. And you have to pay extra for two if you need more room. And you have to use their bin, they won’t pick up just any old bin.
