My electricity smart meter just says "initialized" and nothing else

My electricity meter doesn't seem to be working properly, it just says "initialised" and nothing else.  My smart meter is sending out my gas readings but not my electricity ones.  I have tried to request a new smart meter, but it says that I am ineligible for one at the moment.  Any help much appreciated

Hi @Blastoise186 thanks

I tried that link but one of the questions is "is the HAN light on or flashing?" with no option to select "off"

Ill try calling customer support on that number, hadn't seen it on the website so I'm guessing they don't want to speak with us!

Thanks again
