Do you mean by 'online' via a smart meter? - in which case I think that may be right, it should also be possible to diagnose errors remotely. With a dumb meter the meter must be read at least once a year. Additionally gas meters may need to be physically checked in case of issues with gas leakage. Meters are anyway replaced on a regular basis (though not frequently).

The reference to "online" above by yeknomyeknom (good name btw!) was in response to my saying "I regularly send them readings online" - so nothing to do with a smart meter!

Not sure about that. It will take some time to roll out smart meters and prepayment meters will still exist. And I would think that even smart meters will have to be checked in the same way meters are now for safety reasons. I assume criminals still bypass meters too, so who will check for that?

    • Roll on the time  , if ever, when we adopt the Australian system whereby the agreed price becomes binding. The whole process takes place much more swiftly and with less hassle than it does here. Scotland have a good system also.
    • My view is that it's really, really poor behaviour. Unfortunately some people are rubbish.
    • Just seen a very large bird slowly circling over the bottom end of the Rye/Nunhead area. I think it was a red kite but can't be sure at that height
    • Thanks for the replies. I am expecting several personal and official letters that were posted last week and should have arrived by now, including a new bank card. I complained to my MP, Helen Hayes, a few years ago when most people in ED had the same problem.  She took up the issue and things seemed to improve.    I rang Peckham Sorting Office but the call went to the PO call centre - after a 20 minute wait I managed to speak to someone so  I'll see if anything arrives today.
