Thinking this through, it could be a tactic by the government to reduce energy consumption. 🤔 People see the daily cost is high, panic and start switching everything off. 👴😉

Well, I just checked my IHD and reset it again, whilst standing next to the meters in a semi-dressed state, and hey presto… all the rates are still at the same level of wrongness 🤪

I have just added to my long email trail requesting another update for the second time (having been asked to wait a while longer at the first request for another push) and will now wait with baited breath.

I’m so angry I could slam the phone down… oh hang on, I’m using email 😂

I've not hit the 48 hour limit yet so will sit on my hands for a bit longer. Bright 🌞 hasn't caught up yet but that's not unusual. Popping out later to get a lotto ticket. 😂😂

What could be negative about having a smart meter? 😮

Oh, hang on… that could end up like John Cleese asking his seemingly rhetorical question, “What have the Romans ever done for us?” 😂

Good luck with the lotto… probably got more chance of the jackpot than the seemingly impossible task of getting the correct rates on your IHD 😂

I've just renamed my IHD to Ernie in homage to 'E R N I E'. 😂😂😂😂

I expect the D C C, being a billpayer funded quango, and always seeking to maximise their revenue against any expenditure, do actually use ERNIE to push tariffs. It takes so long as the valves have to warm up first, and then your IHD data is then totally random. It all fits...🕵️‍♂️🎰
