Hello, 

my smart meter is playing up 

electric all works fine but gas shows not money value
it must be sending meter reading to my supplier as they are still billing me but the value i have used per day is always £0.00
the only thing i can find is when i go into the gas account it says waiting for CIN but electric account shows CIN:0000

- this has been like it for months 

nothing has changed regarding wi-fi or positioning and worked fine for ages before this 

any help appreciated

As advised by the member the ‘CIN number’ is not something you’ll need to know or enter in order to set-up your smart meter In-Home Display (IHD).

Hiya @Emma180985 !

You can disregard the CIN, as it’s hardly ever configured by any supplier at all. It just exists for reasons that I’ve forgotten a long time ago.

I think you may want to contact the Support Team and ask them to try the SMETS Command Update Tariff Configuration against both of your meters. If you get lucky, this might fix the issue. If it doesn’t we can try to figure out further clues.
