Had a bit of a calamity with smart meters to be honest. They were originally installed back on 28th January 2022, all was well for a bit the IHD was working and the meters were sending readings.
Then the IHD stopped working and were had to wait to see if they started responding again to which they didn’t, so we then had an appointment booked in with an Engineer on 6th May.
The Engineer said the last install was not done very good and replaced both meters.
Since then the IHD has worked perfectly however the meters have not submitted any readings, anytime I login it says “We’re having trouble getting readings from your smart meter”. I have dealt with the twitter help team multiple teams but just keep getting told to wait more weeks every time I contact them. As of now they’re absolutely useless, and when the price **** goes up in October the IHD won’t update, so we need them to work.
As of now, this morning the meter has a flashing SW, WAN, HAN and GAS light every 5 seconds or so, but no flashing MESH light. I have attached a picture.
Please can somebody help as we are very concerned they are not working and need them sending readings regularly with these upcoming price increases.
Hi @StokeEnergy sorry for the late reply to your messages.
I've managed to take readings from both meters from yesterday, I haven't billed you to these as I can see that you have recently provided some manually.
I've also set your meters to start sending us the readings on the 5th of every month, so going forwards, we should be receiving your readings automatically now and using them in your bills.
Pete 😊

I have known the read schedule to get messed up in certain circumstances. I'll have a chat with @PeterT_EONNext as he's able to attempt to pull manual readings and hopefully fix the read schedules for you.
Just another guy passing by... The unknown tech way...

I have no idea what that means, but it sounds like a step in the right direction. Do I need to do anything? How long is it likely to take? Thank you.
had anyone had any joy? Do I need to do anything.
I’ve just signed up for the bright app, and can see half hourly consumption on there, so the meters must be sending something back.
