Calling DNO/ power company types? Complex meter!?

As subject really, my colleague has tried to switch energy provider, and the new company is saying they can't handle a 'complex meter' and that he has to contact the incumbent provider (a bunch of idiots) to update the records if this is not the case?


I've been an electrician for all of my working life, and have never heard of a 'complex meter'. What gives?


Edit: he has a non- smart meter, but a modern electronic job with LCD.

    A lady requested smart meters, but she has seperate suppliers for her gas and electric. British Gas say they cannot fit a smart gas meter,  because it won't communicate with her new Npower smart electric meter.


    There is an assumption that you will take a dual fuel contract with a single supplier.
