Hi , I wondered if anyone else had come across this problem. I’ve repeatedly contacted customer service to ask for a smart meter as the online booking won’t let me. Each time they have told me there is an issue. But they can’t tell me what the issue is. They first asked if I’d ordered one before then not allowed access or something - I pointed out no, I’d only just bought the house and never had an account with them before. Next time they told me it was a problem with all smart meter installations. Next time when pressed and pressed they admitted it was just mine. But each time they say they don’t know what the problem is and will pass it on to be sorted and someone willget back to me - which they never do. Last time they told me that the request for it to be sorted had simply been cancelled. Do I need to change suppliers to get a smart meter?
Why is there a problem getting a smart meter in my area?

Update on RTS shutdown:
As part of the RTS Project development, we are really happy to share with you our progress:
As you may be aware, the RTS signal that instructs some of our meters when to move to the “Off Peak Period” will be closing down soon and we need to arrange for all of our RTS customers to have a meter exchange so they don’t lose any of their meter functionality.
The RTS signal will end for our customers on 30 June 2025. The period between 1 July - 30 September 2025 will then be used to close-down the RTS signal and allow us to manage any unexpected customers impacted.
From the 17th of June 2024 we began writing to our Economy 10 RTS customers to invite them to call us to arrange for their meter exchange.
We are continuing to work at pace to enable the same solution for the majority of our other RTS customers.
We will continue to update you on our progress.
Ok, so that’s one of these set ups
I don’t know enough about these but someone else does
