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?

"Their" is correct, as in "belonging to them" "They're" = "they are"
which
would be nonsensical.

Darn, where's the delete button? Just realised I misread your quote. Doh!

No need for the delete button. The fools obviously should not have inserted
the unnecessary 'what'.
