Definitely NOT Smart
After 1 year having had smart meters installed I switched suppliers. The new supplier was unable to receive the data so I had to return to supplying manual meter readings. Approx. 1 year later I switch back to the original supplier who fitted the original smart meters only to be informed
"It is not a straightforward procedure to resume Smart Meter functionality. It may be likely that a new Smart Meter may need to be fitted."
So despite already having smart meters I will now have to have new smart meters installed again.
So more expense which ultimately the consumer pays.
