What you appear to have is an E7 meter from the time when storage heaters were installed. In which case all you or the meter reader has to do is total the two readings together to give your actual reading.
What 'hassle' is involved in switching? Once you have your annual consumption figures it takes 5 minutes on a comparison site, and then maybe 15 minutes to sign up online via a cashback site. No phone calls are necessary. Some dual fuel switches pay up to £100 cashback, so with that and the tariff saving you are saving between £100 and £150 for 20 minutes work.
So unless you value your time at around £300ph it's certainly worth it.

One of the readings has an official lable over it saying to read as single meter using the other readings,in fact its almost impossible to read the covered one. The hassle was EON could not get any sense out of EDF,i had to make lots of phone calls,can't remember how many times i said we did not have anything in the house but normal usage,and gave the actual meter number so many times,it took 6 months to sort out. Do not want all that again.
