My husband isn't impressed.

Re: Smart Meters, Who Has them Now.
 

No 2G signal around here, and the companies are not rushing to change for the newer 3G types, so they aren't Smart at all.

Re: Smart Meters, Who Has them Now.
 

I will fight to the bitter end NOT to have one, as I've heard about people dumped onto prepaid.


I should say that my home is a smart home with loads of tech, but I just don't want a smart meter.

Same

Re: Smart Meters, Who Has them Now.
 

Likewise. The more times they ask the more I dig my heels in.

Re: Smart Meters, Who Has them Now.
 

Neighbours of mine had no choice in the matter. As soon as the Certification for the old style meters was up, they were swapped for Smart meters.

Nope, they keep pestering SWMBO to have them installed so we say 'Ok, but it can only be done on a weekend' then we get the response 'Oh, we can't do it then....' repeat every few months

Re: Smart Meters, Who Has them Now.
 

Have both. Neither of them get a signal.

Re: Smart Meters, Who Has them Now.
 

My manual meter tends to over read just before a price rise..... I like it ;)

Re: Smart Meters, Who Has them Now.
 

Had one for about 2 years no problems , got the cheapest deal available at the time , it doesn't run out till may ,however only seem to have to pay standing charge on electric!!

We dont have 1 either and I am very grateful......

VERY GLAD my parents were on vacation when they came to install this bloody thing.... I sent them away w/o doing anything.... (My parents would have openly accepted this garbage)

Higher Bills,no way to get away from the RF going thru your house!!

Those are the two big things!!

Re: Smart Meters, Who Has them Now.
 

What about the RF from your PC, monitor, cellphone, microwave, TV, electrical wiring, electric blankets, fridge, electric shaver, hair dryer, etc.?

Re: Smart Meters, Who Has them Now.
 

Why :confused:

Re: Smart Meters, Who Has them Now.
 

I have my gas meter on one side of the house and the electricity on the other and because of the distance it has never worked.
So only the electricity stats are fed back, not the gas.


Also I didnt want these things transmitting constantly so changed mine to less frequent readings.

Re: Smart Meters, Who Has them Now.
 

Because the tariff for pre pay is higher.
