Smart Meters - Now a shortage (of display units)

Back in November, we had smart meters fitted in an investment property owned by my wife.


The two meters went in, the Engineer kindly fitted an isolator which I had ready to hand and then advised that he was out of internal displays, but that one would follow in a few weeks.


Emails, phone calls and 6 months later have just been advised that rather like airline seats, the supplier had not ordered the same number of internal displays as Smart meters and now that they have changed to fitting SMETS2 meters they do not have any displays available!


Problem is that both meters are fairly inaccessible and whilst both communicate for billing purposes are not that easy to read due to the requirement to hold a torch in one hand, a pen and paper in the other and with the third, press the appropriate key button to obtain a reading.


So, after today's call from the supplier in response to a formal complaint, the house is on the list for a SMETS2


Progress........

  • Of course it discriminates, as does the higher tariffs on prepay meters.


    Wealthy prosumers get paid feed-in then claim renewal heat payments for the heat pumps that use the electricity there PV panels produce then leave the heating on 24/7 including when they are on holiday, whilst other people cannot afford to heat their homes.
