I don't need a meter to tell me when I am using appliances and to turn things off, I can't afford to waste energy.
I already read my own meter every month and submit the reading so my energy supplier gains nothing from my having a meter.
Same here Meg, takes about thirty seconds a month, I dislike the prospect that tariffs could be changed remotely or supply could be restricted, without entering a property.

I think OVO is a great supplier with good prices.
Also we keep our credit topped up to around £1,500.
Because we have been with them for over 3 years we get 5% interest on up to the first £1,000 in the account.
Better than any bank that is!

I have been with them for a few years and get 5% interest on my balance too. I pay the same DD each month so go into the winter with a health balance

Great minds think alike!
The thing is that if one has over a £1,000 in their account during the whole year then this is worth £50 a year interest.
That is done automatically so this is good.
By the way Meg.
Did you receive the very recent offer for a two year price fix?
I did.
And I have done just that!

Re: Energy: SMART Meters
I have a water meter, which I must admit has saved me a hell of a lot of money, now my water company has informed me that they need to replace it with a SMART water meter, I have two weeks to make a decision before they come knocking on the door.It looks like failure to update to the new meter means reverting back to an unmetered water supply thus increasing my water bill.
So I am between a rock and a hard place
