I continue to avoid smart meters having read about the problems others have encountered with them. I guess that makes me a Luddite but I prefer to maintain the illusory control I believe I have over the meters!

delcatto - I was an anti-smart-meter person for many years but am glad I can now see what is going on consumption-wise in real time on my laptop.
Now that Ofgem have a '90 day resolution for all problems' window, I think it is safe for everyone to get a smart meter.
And a 3 day resolution to my smart meter losing connection is exceptionally good service IMHO.
