I'm also thinking of changing provider soon, and 'Smart' meters can cause problems :-(

Had ours for some months now, no problems. We had it installed because OH had to lie on the floor to read the gas meter and climb up to read the electricity one every month lol

When I got a phone message from my supplier informing me they had been 'constantly' trying to contact me (why didn't they leave a message earlier then?) I looked on this site:

http://www.which.co.uk/consumer-rights/advice/do-i-have-to-accept-a-smart-meter

I haven't accepted one - I know the iron, kettle and microwave use a lot of electricity, I have no reason to see a set of numbers in another form :-(

The latest generation work fine no problems and even have a mobile app. If you are not interested in reducing yr power bill ( they work with gas too ) just ignore it.

Anyone had one fitted? If so have you had any problems. We are having one wished upon us in July.
