I'd never want to insult you. So sorry.

I was driven by the tone of satisfaction that I inferred.

But back to my question: Did you ask Octopus why did it need replacing? Vague answers such as EOL would be lying. Was it working or not? It is not yet legally compulsory to have a smart meter.

I don't trust the suppliers on bit - they only want to meet their government targets and then profit further from your usage. When you considered this, what was your conclusion?

Well, then they can recalibrate mine and keep it in place!
