It's got nothing to do with the meter. Big Brother needs an excuse to access your house in order to fit a surveillance device.
Scottish Power - fixated with meter chaning?

Which way is that?someone mentioned I was a bit paranoid.... Yes maybe but the way the world is going
Maybe the new meter will be remote readable and thus avoid the need to use estimated readings. That could work in the favour of the consumer and prevent under estimated readings resulting in a sudden large bill.

I think that's it. The new meters also contain a remote brain-pattern reader that sends your thoughts back to the big smoking volcano.

But that can be defeated by the wearing of a tinfoil hat.
hasn't there Ben recent legislation that all meters must smart by a certain date that I can't remember a this moment in time.
It has been delayed.
It's going to cost US eleven billion pounds.
They say there are thirty million households.
11,000,000,000 / 30,000,000 = £366.67 each.

If, as you suspect, SSE has a hidden agenda, how would we know?
Anyone here who may have introduced the policy for SSE would presumably not tell you.
If your Mother's bills have increased since the replacement then perhaps the old one was faulty and under-recording.
I think SSE would then be quite keen to replace it.
I don't know.

Only one person.
AGAIN
I think this is the 3rd delay now but when you consider that we are 3 years behind on commercial meters, it is not suprising.
The main delay is that no one will put there neck on the block and say "This is what we want a Smart Meter to do" and until then, no manufactures will spend a fortune on R&D.
I visit a few domestic propertys where the customer is working from home and are on a commercial contract and there just is not enougth room to get the current design of meters in and when you consider that certain suppliers what "Remote Disconnect" which are even bigger, you are fighting a losing battle.
