ENVIROWASTE CHARGED COMMERCIAL RATES FOR RESIDENCE FOR PAST 15 YEARS !

Anna from Northcote Point

Hey there neighbours. It was only when I went to cancel Envirowaste this week who collect my yellow bin (because of the sky rocketing price for weekly collection) that Envirowaste tell me I have been paying commercial rates for a residential bin for over 15 - 20 years. They tell me the they don't owe me any money as all residential properties were charged commercial rates back in the day? Any lawyers out there ? Do I have a case under the Fair Trade Act, the Consumer's Guarantee Act or for the Small Claims Court ? They are only now offering to give me a discount on a residential bin after they have jacked the prices to astronomical levels over the years. I would be interested to know what others thought ?
