Recently, an incident of non-payment of water bills by an owner in the Fuch Square community in Tianjin has become the focus of attention of netizens. According to the "Notification Letter" provided by the owner, the owner of Building 11 in the community owes more than 1,000 yuan in water bills, and one of the owners owes more than 8.1 million yuan, which has aroused heated discussions and speculations among netizens.
The community project is commercial in nature, and the water supply fee is paid by the property company to the water company regularly according to the total water meter of the project, so as to ensure the normal water use of all owners. However, due to the failure of the battery of the tap water meter of some owners, the water meter failed to realize the function of closing the valve in arrears, so that some owners can still use water normally, but there is a situation of water bill arrears.
According to the content of the "Notification Letter", as of now, the owners of Building 11 have a total of 10726797 outstanding water bills$1. The property management company reminds the owners who have not paid the water bill to pay the water bill at the property management office before December 17 to avoid inconvenience to their lives. However, it is surprising that some property owners have significantly more water bills than normal. One of the owners owed more than $8.1 million, and the other three owed more than $810,000. These figures have sparked speculation and questions from netizens.
Some netizens ridiculed: "It's not enough to go bankrupt." For such a huge amount of water bill arrears, many netizens expressed incomprehension and speculated whether there were other reasons for the abnormal water bill.
Netizens have speculated whether it is the daily heavy rain in the building or the presence of hydroelectric power facilities that has led to such a high amount of water bills. However, due to the lack of detailed information, netizens' speculation is only at the level of speculation.
It is understood that the owner of this arrears of more than 800 yuan is a first-floor merchant, which used to be a rice noodle restaurant, and is currently a barbecue restaurant that has not been opened for a long time. The reporter contacted the staff of the barbecue restaurant, and they said that they did not know, "just kidding, more than 8 million." Another restaurant also said that he felt that the incident was a bit outrageous.
In response to this water bill debt incident, the property company and water company of Foch Plaza have responded one after another. According to the water company, they only look at the total meter and collect the total water bill, which is calculated by the utility company based on the amount of water used. The water company did not know how the property company charged the property owner and incurred such a large amount of arrears.
The staff of the Place Foch Property Service Center said that they have explained the problems related to the arrears of water bills and will work with the owners to verify the water meters and the amount of arrears.
The property of the community involved said that there was an abnormality in the water meter of the household, from the large number to the small number, and the specific cause of the abnormality still needs to be checked. The local water company said that the community involved needed to make up a total of about 80,000 yuan in water bills, including the bottom merchants.
The whole incident has attracted a lot of attention and discussion. Many netizens said that it was difficult to understand, and they ridiculed the strange situation that the owner was bankrupt and the water bill was not enough. Other netizens questioned whether there was a problem with the water and electricity meters, resulting in an abnormal calculation of the water bill.
In the face of this incident of water bill shortage, all parties are actively investigating and verifying. For property owners, timely payment of water bills is an important measure to avoid subsequent inconveniences. For the occurrence of similar incidents, the relevant departments should also strengthen supervision and management to ensure that the property management company accurately calculates and collects water charges, so as to avoid unnecessary disputes and troubles to the owners and the community.
