Re: Save Money when you have a Smart Meter
our meters (gas and electric) apparently are very old maybe when house was built in the mid 1980's. The meter reader guys are surprised and recon maybe we are on the winning side of what they read to what we actually use.So no way do we want them changed, oh and they have not been tampered with either. Like us old and slow

. According to an item on the radio, lower tariffs are to be introduced for those with smart meters that mean those of us don't have a smart meter could end up paying £200 a year .
I am still going to hang on to the bitter end with my old meter.

I warned about this over a year ago on other smart meter related threads.
Continue to hold out imo. You WILL win in the end.
The fools taking smart meters will see their bills double or triple in due course. Not immediately of course because they still have a very long way to go to get people to take the meters. Once they have enough people hooked up they will then introduce the awful VARIABLE RATE BILLING which will see people's bills skyrocket as their usage in the evening is subjected to higher tariff charges.
All they can do to dissenters is put them on some kind of "non smart meter tariff" which of course will be expensive.
But it won't be as expensive as those WITH smart meters when the axe finally falls.
If your energy supplier tries forcing you to take a smart meter remind them that the government has very clearly stated that THEY ARE NOT COMPULSORY.
If they threaten to put you on a stupidly high tariff for refusing one, then walk away. Show them the customer rules not them.
Go to any of a number of other suppliers who are still happy for you to use old meters.
Use less energy to punish them.
Install solar panels etc
Fight hard because these sh*tbags are doing this to gain £billions more in profits from unsuspecting naïve members of the public.
