Default Smart meters

I have just ordered a Smart meters install for the 20th of May. How can
I tap into the data via the PC's?


Received a letter today from Scottish Power asking me to make an
appointment to have my Smarts installed. Came with 2 leaflets, one of
which 'The benefits of smart meters' quotes customers responses to the
fitting of SMs including '85% felt they have a better understanding of
what their (sic) spending on energy'. So if 85% of those surveyed don't
know the difference between 'their' and 'they're' why should I trust their
opinions? The leaflets are very short on details as to how I will
benefit, especially as I currently (no pun intended) get a discount for
self reading my meters. OK so it's only £2.20 a quarter but 'every little
helps' I'm told! Also there's no indication whether the fitting is
compulsory or optional.
