Thames Water replaced my leaking copper mains water pipe FREE with a nice
new plastic one, & gave me 2 stop cocks, they're pretty good I think, but
with an old crumbling infrastructure.

I am suggesting that you cease to pay your Thames Water bill until the
salaries of the top executives at Thames Water are redirected to water
pipe infrastructure which is in some cases a hundred years old.


I think your find this is a country wide problem so it would be the
whole country who would have to stop paying their water bills. And if
you don't pay your water bill how are they going to get the money to fix
the pipes? I can assure you that the shareholders won't put their hand
in their pockets.
Thames and LU both have the same problem. They spend more and more money
on repairs and renewal and get less and less back.
