Re: BEWARE Smart Meters Coming
I look at it like this Mark:-
I pay my energy bills every quarter, I mark on my calendar when I need to pay it and on that day I read my meters and sent them in over the net. They have my bill ready the same day and I use my debit card to send the payment, job done for the next three months.
If they ever send me an estimated bill [it has happened] I send in my meter readings and they will prepare a new accurate bill.
A smart meter will automatically transmit your readings on a regular basis and you won't need to do anything.
Your bill will be calculated and provided you are paying via direct debit, it will be taken from your account....You won't need to do anything.
I might be old fashioned, but I would like to be part of the equation, especially the bit where money is being taken from my account.
Not to mention the health implications associated with high frequency RF waves, however, It's still a grey area with me, whether it actually affects your grey matter or not, since there are plenty of other RF waves floating around from other sources.
Then there is the question of control. Your supply can be completely controlled remotely. You know as well as I do, the more high tech things get, the more they will be prone to screw ups.
And as you also know, any information that is transmitted through the air can be hacked and used against you by unscrupulous persons.
So I wouldn't recommend one.....
