I bought my new cottage in March
The survey said it had a septic tank,
that's fine i thought, these typically need empting between 3 & 4 times a year at a cost of £90 a time, that's about right as I wont get charged sewerage charges on the water, and it was emptied on vacation by the previous owners.
It was filled up as of yesterday and they came to take some out... thjey arrive and declare "that's not a septic tank.. that's a cesspool".
Great.. every drop of water that comes into the house goes back out into this tank, having spoken to the emptying company their records indicate that it has been emptied of 15 units (67500 litres) in the past year at a cost of £90 per unit. That makes my drainage cost for the year £1500 + VAT.
In true Alex style, someone has given me duff info and ****ed me over, this time I believe it to be my mortgage company.
I will now not wash on monday wednesday and friday, we I will grow acid friendly plants and wee in the garden, I will use paper plates and not cook soup or other watery items.
right off to roba bank to pay for a Biodisk treatment plant, and bang goes getting another bike ever.... ffs
I give up
