Well the fact they are still allowing ppl to opt out means THEY KNOW THEY ARE NOT 100% SAFE...... (Those who do take this are willlingly taking this in. Those who know whats what,can opt out of it)

Otherwise they would outright force it on all.......

No that's not the reason at all. They are just giving people a choice. Eventually everyone will have smart meters. Maybe just just don't want the expense of switching them all out. If your old meter works then fine. Keep on it till it needs a replacement.

Also it's not a question of safety. They aren't dangerous or harmful.

"Letting this in' Letting what in, a vampire, an illegal immigrant?

You really do talk so much bollocks all the time no wonder people think you're a bit strange and very gullible.

So i have now moved to the Agile tariff. So i will be charging my car tomorrow afternoon and they will be paying me 4.16p per KWH. My car will need 38 KWH to fill. Plus we will be using the washing machine and dryer at the same time :)

Glad it is working out positively for you. For me I don't have an EV and I couldn't possibly shift my usage when at home when the the prices are far over the SVT in my evenings, I've compared my Tracker with Agile on the Octopus Compare app and over the last month Tracker is slightly cheaper for me in pence.

Well octopus have booked another appointment, this time in August.
I actually got a confirmation email as well, so its entirely possible it might happen.

They finally admitted their error, and fixed my broken meter readings as well.

It's a shame the tracker rates have changed for July onwards, for example I'm on the April Tracker Tariff and my Electric tomorrow will be 19.70 and Gas 4.16 but on the July Tracker it would be Electric 21.34 and Gas 4.56.

I thought the point of a "Tracker" is it goes up/down, not a fixed price ?

As long as you don't respond, or let them have access, then quite a long time.
