I think the biggest saving will be for the utility companies by not
having to pay for all the meter readers hence they become more profitable.

You forget the annual safety checks that the meter readers perform!

I have monitored my gas/elec for a few years now and my bills are less
now than 5 years ago, I didnt need a smart meter to do it.

Is this because you have actively tried to use less energy or that the
winters have been milder than previously and use have used less energy
heating your house?

My energy bills have gone down because in the past year or two I'm
taking more holidays or visiting friends hence using less energy at home.
