I haven't done that. Can I still even take an 'actual' reading if there's a smart meter installed?
In any case, I have now only a few weeks to fix the leak (or establish there isn't one) before Thames insist on fixing it themselves (see my earlier post).
Seems you know what the priority is. Having a "blip" months ago is hardly justification for Thames Water to act on your property - especially given how many leaks you see on our roads these days
