they have been the meter reading company for years around here. we are eon.
nothing to worry about. but could you set up a password, so that you can be sure it's them, not an impersonator.
i'm sure they will inform you of the reading if you ask them; why wouldn't they.

They read my meter (British Gas) last week.

One of their staff came and read our meters before they were changed. All above board for us bea

Morrisons are often in my area, yes they read meters, generally say they are checking meter for safety but i say no you are checking I am not fiddling the meter. (don't have and don't want a smart meter)

Their Companies House profile looks good enough.

Sorry Bea I have only just logged on again.
I must confess I have never asked them for their reading.
My meters are in my garage and like you I cannot read them myself, too old and decrepit 😉
I suppose I just trust them.

Hi annsixty thats good to know...do they actually advise you of the readings when they're done? I cannot access my gas meter as have poor mobility and the actual meter was meant to be changed few years ago as it was water logged! Despite my many follow ups, nothing has been achieved..just hope the actual gas meter reading isn't off the charts hmm

They have been reading my meter on behalf of EDF for some time now with no problem.

I googled Morrison Data Services and they are a meter reading company. Never heard of them before though.

If you google them you can see that they are a reputable company, contact them directly if you want to.

Tell the bot you need to speak to a person. That often works.

Have rec'd email from Morrison's Data Services who i've never heard of..they say they are visiting the property on behalf of EDF who is my dual energy provider FOR up-to-date meter reading. The email states they will be in my area from oct 27 thru nov 17! Hasve any GNs rec'd such an email or know of this company? Have tried calling EDF but not managed to get to speaking to a Human...tried their WHATSAPP service and keep repeating my enquiry with an annoying BOT called ENZO...
