I'll be fucked if I'm getting a smart meter anyway, I'll stick with nice normal top-up prepay meters thank you kindly.
I don't trust British Gas as far as I can throw em.
Pre.. pay? At your own house?
In some places, you pay for utilities before using them, and they shut you fuck off right in the middle of the month if you've used it up. :/
It's literally a coin operated meter or voucher system inside the house that you top up like a phone
Only some phones, in the usa most people have post pay plan
Same here but the analogy stands
