Illinois residents received an outrageous water bill.

Incorrect Expensive Illinois Water Bill

Unless you've been living off the grid in a cave or something, then you know how high prices for everything have gotten. I can't believe how expensive all products and services have gotten in Illinois. When I think about it, I get really concerned about how will I be able to afford products later down the road.

A brother and sister in Illinois had a similar thing happen but even worse. Their bill arrived the statement said they owed $18,000 to the water company. Think about all the stuff you can buy for that much money.

The homeowners hired a plumber to do work on their house but unfortunately, they found nothing wrong. That was a jump from paying just $300 each month. The homeowners figured out the problem. It was a faulting water meter.

At this point, I was hoping for a happy ending but that's not going to happen. The city has the power to change and lower the bill but at this point, they haven't decided if they will or not. Good luck, I hope they figure it out.
