Gas company: We need to do a physical reading this time because previously we heard a dog barking from inside your house so was unable to so please leave your gate unlocked for 5 consecutive days from 8am - 5pm even though your dog knows that it’s unlocked and thus wants to spend his entire day outside barking at shadows and basking in the little bit of sunshine that this wonderful city provides. We may turn up. We may not because you will never know until you receive our bill. Thank you.
Once upon a time they used to read my gas meter every couple of months, and they would send me a bill after they did so. Now they seem to read the actual meter on random irregular intervals, but the bill is on a set monthly cycle that involves them estimating the reading, then doing lots of inpenetrable mathematics to make things match up to the ocassional actual meter readings.
you with globird? I definitely know you can with that. Have a look at your bill, if it’s E then I think legally you have to be able to challenge with a pic of the meter.
yeah mine still thinks we have gas ducted. I normally just pay and not care, but they took the piss a bit this winter, so I just kept taking photos of the meter and sending back to recalculate. Turned a $400 gas bill into a $120 credit lol

I think it’s ridiculous I can’t just take a pic and send it.
I can do that, maybe it depends on which retailer you are with.
