SEQ residents claim upset stomachs after changes to drinking water

I've been double-filtering mine with a Brita water jug which removes nearly all of the taste.

Tbh I haven't really noticed the taste change yet. I don't use any filter, just pour it into a jug and put the jug in the fridge to get properly cold.

Hmm I don't usually chill my water but I heard that helps a lot. Might start doing that myself.
The taste is very noticeable unchilled. I noticed after rinsing when brushing my teeth. I heard the water was bad in the western suburbs and it was about 24 hours later that I started noticing the taste in Brisbane's south (I guess the water towers get filled at different times).

Yeah the taste has not been pleasant for the last week or two.
Do you mind if I ask what suburb you're from? I am near Jimboomba and haven't noticed much of a difference (though we might not be affected by this). Maybe more metallic, but that is kind of subjective.
Everton Park (Northside). It tastes very earthy/dirty.
