Key Takeaways

•Small mistakes in names or descriptions on water bills won't cancel the bill.
•The bill is still valid if the mistake doesn't hurt the person paying.
•Only big mistakes that cause real problems can make a bill invalid.

Example

Your water bill has a typo in your name, like 'Jon' instead of 'John'.

The bill is still valid because the typo doesn't change the fact that you owe money for the water you used.
