Default Another Smart meter grumble

I would have thought the local terminal would let you know in real time, its
only the analysis by edf which is done periodically Otherwise how on earth
would tariffs like Economy 7 ever work on a smart meter. It has to be real
time measuring surely or its pointless both for the supplier and yourself.
Sounds to me like they don't understand their own kit.

I've booked my install because it is a requirement for the tariff I am on.

Nearly at the end they ask if you want information collecting every 30
minutes, weekly or monthly (IIRC).

Well, if I'm going to get any value at all I might as well have enough
data to see daily trends.

Hang on, if I ask for 30 minute data capture I have to agree to EDF using
the information to offer me services to improve my energy usage. So
reversing the privacy options that I have selected.

I'm having data collected monthly.

Remind me again how this Smart meter is going to save me money?

Cheers
