$11 000 water bill

Barbadian Ebrahim Mohamed is enraged by a Barbados Water Authority (BWA)?bill for $11 473.03 and a tenant who quit his property owing him $81 000.
In an interview yesterday, he told the WEEKEND NATION he was seeking legal advice on how to deal with the problem, since he had instructed the BWA months ago to disconnect its service from his rented property at 7th Avenue, Belleville, St Michael.
Mohamed said that after the tenant ceased to pay rent and a BWA bill arrived with a “due for disconnection” notice, he instructed the BWA to disconnect the service.
He was shocked when he was told by the customer service clerk that he would have to seek a court order to get the BWA to turn off the water. (CT)
