Smart Meter

My electricity supplier has recommended a tariff which would save me money over the year, but signing up for it also includes this as part of the T&Cs: "By signing up to the tariff you are registering your interest for a Smart Meter. This means we may contact you in the future to discuss a smart meter installation as and when you become eligible." Would this lock me into having to have a Smart Meter? I see no way that I can have this tariff and exclude this clause. I bet they would say that I was eligible as soon as I signed up.

You can always change supplier and find one that does not force you down that road. My outgoing supplier's tariff was cheaper than the previous year but meant installing a smart meter. No thanks, I jumped ship!!

I might take a look at that. The tariff I will be going on to, with no smartmeter, has no exit fee, so I could switch at any time.
