Lies, damned lies and smart meter rollouts
Recently I received an email from our gas and electric supplier telling me that my meter is too old and needed replacing. When I challenged them how the meter in my newly built house could be too old, they admitted I had been "wrongly informed". This was after I had already told them where to stick their smart meters as there was no legal requirement on me to accept one - and they had agreed that they wouldn't bother me again. Government and EU pressure to roll out these pointless devices is driving bad behaviour in the gas and electric suppliers.
