I don’t as I am already as careful as I can be with my usage a smart meter would not be useful.

At the moment I am not bothering as it wouldn’t save me any money.
If I choose to go with a different supplier it would probably result in having to have the old smart meter replaced as the power companies use different systems.
Once they all get their act together I might consider it as by that time using a stepladder and torch to check the readings could be more problematical.?

It’s ridiculous that they all have their own.
What a waste!

Yes I have, no it wasn't (stopped my husband filling the kettle every time!) but have now changed provider, so smart meter now defunct.

I am being bombarded with emails and letters by my elec/gas supplier to fit a smart meter, has anyone done this and has it been a problem?
Thanks.
