G'day Roos, I was looking into smart meters 6 or 7 years ago & I wasn't encouraged from what I saw at the time in terms of privacy, higher bills & fire risk, EMF emissions etc.
Does anybody here have first hand experience or reliable anecdotes that might be inconsistent with the virtues portrayed by those promoting them?
A letter arrived today saying we are scheduled to get our electricity meter "upgraded" to a "smart meter" in early August.
It's a funny little letter that informs that we may be placed on a new pricing plan & we'll be provided with another letter after the fact.
Our intention is to get the letter now, so that we can letter box drop our neighbours before they submit to any change.
Naturally their offer of unsolicited goods & services will be declined & returned along with a letter informing our current provider that we are switching providers.
