Smart meter deadline 'should be extended'
The deadline for installing smart meters across the UK should be extended for another three years, Citizens Advice has said. "Citizens Advice said:"With 42 million smart meters still to be installed by 2020, we're concerned that the time pressure cause by the fast-approaching rollout deadline will lead to a poorer quality installation experience for consumers. Citizens Advice said 80% of people who had had a smart meter installed were happy with them. In 2017, its consumer helpline received 3,000 calls concerning smart meter problems. These included first-generation smart meters losing their functionality, aggressive sales practices and customers still having to send their smart meter readings.
