Smart meters

Alethea from Mahora

Hi everyone out there in cyber land.
Wanting to know if you have a smart meter for your power and did you ask for one to be put in or were you unaware that one was put in without your consent?
I found one was put in on my house without my knowledge, so have had the chip removed. Since having it removed I have had nothing but HUGE problems with the power company since, my mum is with Grey Power. Not reading the meter (hasn't been read since Nov 2017), bills are weeks later. Over Christmas we had one bill that was for 45 days!!
Just wondering if anyone else has had the same problem and how did you fix it? Tired of ringing the power company every month *sigh*
