I just figured out that someone told the water company to send their bills to my house. The house that is using the water is in Tao-Yuan…and I live in Chung-Li. But they used my mailing addresse for their bills. So I have unknowingly paid someone else’s water bills a few times before catching on. I have their addresse…time to go introduce myself.
I asked my landlord, by the way. He’s never heard of them…and says he has no idea who they are.
Always double check the address on bills. I frequently end up with my neighbor’s bill in my box. Not that I’m accusing them :s or anything. Could easily be the mailperson’s fault. Except for how often it happens…
i agree with hexuan - just because it ain’t a lot of money. getting your <$1000 NT back, or knowing that one day, they will be high and dry … i’d take the latter.
send them a note in about 6 months asking them about water supply (it takes awhile before they’ll shut it off here - at least 2 months after non-payment).
