Need help. I just moved in a property with pre-smets l+g e470 meter, could anyone help me on how to do the meter reading? As I need to provide the meter reading now.  Many thanks! Ellen

Thanks! Your Rate 1 reading is 17619. You should be able to get the Rate 2 reading by pressing the blue button.

I recommend having that meter replaced though. OVO can do this if you ping Live Chat via https://help.ovoenergy.com .

If you need a hand, feel free to give us a shout. We’re only volunteers who don’t work for OVO, but we can often answer most questions you may have.

Hey @ellenshao888 !

Sure thing. Can you show us a photo (or a few!) of the meter please? :)

        Thank you very much! I’ll try it. If I’m the owner, I’ll do it straight away, it’s a renting property...

        As the OVO customer, you have automatic rights to swap that meter out. Your landlord can’t stop you. Trust me, I rent myself!
