Has anyone got a “smart” meter installed. After much pressure, I allowed them to install a one. What a complete waste of time…for me! The trouble is, just like Einsteins brain, it might very smart but its complete gobbledegook to ordinary people. I now have four separate monitors in the van in an easy to understand graphic or list showing exactly what each appliance or circuit is doing. Is it really that difficult for the energy companies to make a simple readout for an average consumer to understand showing what our domestic appliances are costing us? I think not. Unfortunately I’ve always been a sceptic and believe that keeping the customer in a trusting haze of information fog is what's going on. I smell a whiff of big brother organising finances to suit themselves.
