Just submitted my latest readings (i'm a refusenik you know!)
So my consumption Jan to July inclusive 2023 (i've estimated the final days) is 1013 kWh, and in the same period last year it was 1610, so this year is down 597 kWh or circa 37%.
Most of that I put down to the new fridge freezer. I anticipate it will pay for itself well inside of 3 years - it wasn't a cheap item and the savings are going down with the reduced price of electricity, but I'm more than happy so far.

Current Eon Next customer, ex EDF, Zog and Symbio. Don't think dual fuel saves money and don't like smart meters. Chronologically Gifted. If I offend let me know by private message, but I’ll continue to express my opinions nonetheless.
Not too shabby, that. Can you put a value on the stress and hassle saved by not having a smart meter or a recalcitrant IHD? I make it 'priceless'👍🤣
Don't shoot me, I'm only the piano player. I DON'T work for or on behalf of EON.Next, but am willing to try and help if I can. Not on mains gas, mobile network or mains drainage. House heated almost entirely by baby dragons.
I was just thinking that. Here's my meter, or a stock shot of it at any rate. What's not to like? I can even do you a refurbished, certified unit for a tenner, @JoeSoap
@JoeSoap & @retrotecchie Fifty years from now there's probably going to be a museum of smart meters rather like there is for mobile phones and computers. It might be time to start collecting and putting aside. You never know a rare one boxed and in mint condition could be worth a fortune. 🤔 😂
