Presumably not Gritish Bas then? Laugh | :laugh:

At our previous house, we spent two years fighting to get them to fix the smart meter. They'd tell us it was working, then tell us we hadn't submitted a meter reading. When we complained, they'd say "it's a known issue, it'll be fixed in six months", then close the complaint as "resolved".

At our new house, the standard smart meters don't work because we're too close to RAF Fylingdales. Their call-centre staff don't understand, and think we're talking about the "known issue" - which still isn't fixed! - and just keep sending back canned responses to fob us off. We ended up having to go to the ombudsman just to get to talk to someone who actually understands the issue.

We've now ended up jumping ship to the Cthulhu-themed energy provider.
