I've had letters from my supplier stating that my old meter has gone 'end of life' and it needs to be replaced by a smart meter. They never provide proof of this and have been happily accepting my readings for a number of years with no warnings to say my meter may be failing in any way. In addition, if I choose to change the payment plan I am on I have to have a smart meter to qualify for any new, better cost plan, whether with my existing supplier or a new one. How legal is this? This is tantamount to black mail! I won't change! I know exactly what devices are high energy users and always seek to lower my usage. I don't need a remote switch to tell me that.
@mickymouze1224
@mickymouze1224 4 месяца назад
I've been having similar issues where I tried to change provider only to be told I must accept a smart meter, which I won't. Just recently my current provider for electricity has changed my billing from quarterly to monthly, meaning I now face threats of late payment 'fines' 12 times a year instead of 4. On top of this they've stopped issuing me with a paper bill so I'm forced to pay online, I can't even take an old bill to a paypoint as they've changed my account number. When I phoned them and complained about this unnecessary inconvenience and tried explaining I can't always get to the communal part where all the meters are housed all she could say was 'smart meter, you need to get a smart meter', it was like talking to a pre-programmed dalek. It's disgusting the way they're being allowed to mistreat their 'valued' customers.

The other is the Smart UTILITY Meter - that's the large SUPPLY meter that the Utility company uses to measure usage and charge you for the supply. This CANNOT be unplugged. It's the second one - the SMART UTILITY METER that's the risk to you - your power can be remotely switched off, either by the supplier or a hacker. Plus, because there is no encryption or security, a hacker can access your usage to see if you are home by monitoring power usage.

Smart meters are not smart. All that happens is the digital display shows that you are using electricity when you switch on the electric kettle. From this you are supposed to deuce that electric kettles use electricity and if you stop drinking tea, coffee, Bovril, Ovaltine or any hot drink you will save electric energy. Then you switch to using a kettle on the gas and the meter says the same thing, from which you are supposed to deduce once again that drinking hot drinks in the winter uses "ENERGY". Stop it now all old freezing people in the winter no more hot drinks, often results in death. Even I'm dumb enough to figure that one out.

Smart meters - Turn off your energy supply from a remote office. Online banking - freeze your assets from a remote office. Electric car - stop you travelling from a remote office. See where this is going, if you have a discrepancy with your gas bill, pay up or we’re going to turn off your heating mid January………………..

@125brat

Sounds like bad forward planning to me. I live in Lincolnshire where we are having a battle with National Greed who want to run new cables on pylons overground from Grimsby to Walpole in Norfolk to import power from Scottish Wind Turbine fields to the London area. Also they want to build switching and converter stations at various points along the route plus allowing literally dozens of new wind and solar farms to connect to the grid to feed the south-east. The cables should be on the sea-bed and infrastructure should be either where the cables make landfall or in areas of no population. Solar farms should not be allowed on prime agricultural land needed for food production and free-stream tidal turbines should be the means of generating all the energy we need and more.
@125brat
@125brat 4 месяца назад
I must admit I've noticed some local wind turbines here in south Lincolnshire have been stationary recently despite the winds blowing. I know sometimes they "Feather" them to prevent damage or overspeed when the wind is too strong, but there seems to have been quite a few off-line lately.

The savings to be made are by the supply companies not the public. Knowing how fast the bill is going up is of no use to someone without the funds to implement savings measures like LED bulbs, low power appliances and so on. Digitisation is fundamentally about data collection and once it is collected you can be "managed" with it. Social credit based on your electricity consumption anyone?

Firstly, you cant be forced to have on installed. Even though the energy companies are economical with the truth ref installation. Secondly, it is in THEIR interest for you to have a "smart" meter installed and not yours. one example they can just switch off you electricity remotely at the flick of a switch WITHOU entering your home. Believe you me, smart meters aint for the benefit of the consumer. Lastly, this why energy companies are pushing it so hard is, there is a penalty charge against them if they [energy companies] dont meet certain installation/customers with smart meter targets.

We have someone coming out next week to replace our faulty gas meter. I have told our supplier I will not accept a smart meter and their engineer will be refused access onto my property if he brings one and he will be reported for trespass. There is nothing in law that states you have to have a smart meter. I have also informed them he has to have proper identification, which I will check with his head office, be wearing full PPE for the task, all his test equipment must be calibrated and in date, he must have proof of his qualifications, a full risk assessment and a method statement otherwise he will not be allowed access. I’ve also informed them that I worked in the trade for many years and will observe everything he does like a hawk and require a full gas safety certificate upon completion. Let’s see how that goes😁

If you were in the trade you wouldn't take it out on the people that do the work by being so awkward. When they get you your door, ask if it's a standard meter as requested then give them a cup of tea and have a nice chat and let them get on with it. They wouldn't be at your door if they are not qualified to replace the meter and aren't interested in screwing you over like the heads of these companies that are trying to force smart meters. They just want a pay check at the end of the month and you should applaud them for having a job and not being a scrounging benefits scum.
