So far, I think that they have cost every household something like £450, which is added to the bills over the years, drip by drip. And no, the basic digital meters are not perfect either, actually very poor, but I have one, but would much rather have kept my big brass and aluminium thing with a spinning disc that I know was accurate, did not over-read. Should never have let the man in to change it.
Even thinking of putting my own one in again to challenge the spurious over-readings from the little digital box, which I distrust completely. Not that that would likely get me very far.
I don't trust these things at all, knowing a bit about what's inside them, and they cannot provide any benefit to me, since they cannot possibly work where I live.
Speaking as a well qualified electronics engineer, amongst other things, with quite some experience in at a level beyond most. In far more sophisticated stuff. A cynic ? well yes.
