Although the programme for roll out is in the tulip again, did you know it is not compulsory to have them in your gaff?
No, neither did I!
Having contracted in the utility industries, I know Smart Meters arent about saving the consumer money (the cost of installation will be paid via increased bills!). What they will mean is you will be billed immediately for the gas \ leccie you use. Some may say what's wrong with that but you can already submit meter reading via websites.
But, the meters would enable suppliers to cut off your supply without visiting the premises. But probably more penicious, would allow them to introduce tarriffs for consumption at different times of the day \ peak periods.
So, I signed up to stop smart meters. They'll never take me alive!
