Once again the water is off in parts of the Birkenhead/Prenton area.

I went to get a shower and the water is dead low then my shower head snapped! went to get a bath and took me about half an hour to fill and now we have no water at all.

Also family members in the area have no water too, it seems to happen about twice a year in my area!!

Why did your shower head snap?

did you pull the head to hard in the shower?

I didnt know people in Birkenhead used water

Wtf was you doing with it, the mind boggles, lol.

They don't now.

or had showers

ha ha no I live in Prenton I will have you know lol, I think the shower head snapped as someone has been messing with it when they had a shower last (aka little sister) and not screwed it back on and broke the thread.

Hmmmmmm

oh

With your bath taking half an hour to fill was it cold by the time you went to get in it resulting in mission failure?

Missis has just told me that we have no water too luckily I have already had a cuppa T. A warning would of been nice tho. Anyone know what's going on?.

Ours off too

I was told When I rang at 12.30 they had still not found the problem

probly the gypsys diverted the water to the north end so they can get washed and for kooking lol would they pay water rates or buy bottled water or just stick a stand by pipe in to get free water and lower the water preasure ????? the dale camp springs to mind lol

I hope it gets sorted soon as Birkenhead smells enough without more BO

I've used my shower once in about two months as I use the ones in the gym twice a day! Wonder how much money I've saved on electric/water?!

HI, looks like the water is back on a bit slow but at least its water!. mike.

ITS BACK OFF! again, what if we paid our bills the same?

ooooo now this is strange im literally round the corner from you mike and its been ok here

i know ive just tried again 18-10 pm, im bloody sick of united/arseutilities its there cock up in the first place!.

we had no heating or hot water thanks to WPH not giving us new boiler but having 8 repairmen come out in space of 4 months to try and fix a boiler that needs condemning last night it completley died!!

thankfully they guy who came out from repair team last night (after practically begging woman on repair line to please send someone out as it was and still is cold and with having 3 children) the guy left us 2 little heaters and then today we got a wheelie bin (yellow) hauled up the stairs that is filled with cold water for n hour that turns to hot only because i rang repairs this morning.

Please god please repairmen come out Monday rip the useless piece of junk from boiler cupboard and give us a new 1.

All back on now, water back up and been to Homebase to buy a new shower head and hose lol.

haha nice one bud

Mum's water was off/low pressure and came back up to full pressure this evening.

There's a united utilities road works near top of Singleton Avenue - maybe that's the problem location.

hi dave, dont let your sister near it again?.
