It is further reported that the technology is such that the volume of water you fetch determines how much is debited from your ATM card.
The machine has a metering system that measures the water fetched per session.
Just like the Gas/Fuel Delivery Machine, billing is done on price-per-litre basis. The litres of water fetched is usually multiplied by the preset price of a litre.
