This is easily done (without changing meter) as all companies do is add up the two readings and charge at the single rate.

Octopus even have a help page offering to do this.

Bulb however, just basically refused and wanted to charge me £120 to swap my meter.

So I stuck two fingers up at them, and signed up to switch to British Gas [the switch is set for Friday], they were quite happy to do this from the start - it was actually a question when I signed up - they detected I had a dual rate meter and asked if I wanted to go on a Dual or Single rate.

I'll see how this goes for a few months but I will still have the option to move (again) if necessary.
