Any more recent experiences with these?
I don’t see how they can increase the price you pay is the same no matter what, you can use a calculator to work it out if need be, I’ve just switched to agile octopus and as we are both in during the day the cost savings can add up, this week alone probably saved about £3, doesn’t sound a lot but £5 a week is £240 a year give or take. . I don’t think it’s been tight I think it’s been careful, if obviously you are out of the house most of the day it becomes a lot more inflexible.Since we moved here last September, we are constantly pestered from the energy company to have one installed. After the one in the last house we are very reluctant, as our bills increased significantly after fitting.
Yup. My electricity is on a smart meter installed when we redirected the supply. They come and read it and leave the door to the box swinging in the wind. It then blows off on our windy corner. Had to repair it twice in three years. “The box is the consumer’s responsibility.”Unbelievably they still have them reading smart meters.
I think most companies like to have a manual reading every 6 months or so. hopefully that highlights any issues with the information they are getting. It's also a good idea to do this anyway for your own peace of mind.I always thought, so they told me, that smart meters can be read wirelessly. I've been getting emails from BG telling me it's time to read the meter! Whatever happened to those guys who used to come round to collect the shillings yer'd put into the meter and then carefully wrapped them into a very tidy cyclinder?
Bet it votes for the reform PLC party..My Smart Meter is nor very smart. It doesn't work!
