I have just, well last week, had an email with a contact number on
it to
call and get a smart meter installed complete with a talking consumer
device.

Why would sir want such a thing?

He is blind !, so either essential or very useful to him.


OIC. Do meters give such problems to blind people? I thought that
operatives from the suppliers were still sent out. Maybe the service has
been cut.


Smart meters are sold on more than remote metering. We're supposed to be
able to save oodles of money if we consent to having them installed -
not sure how.


By allowing variable tariffs. I currently get 4 hours every night charged
at 5p/kWhr as opposed to 15p during the day. Perfect for charging my car.
