EDF - No Display on Gas Pre Paymnet Meter.

Hi all i went to check how much gas i had and it showed no dispaly what so ever.

I still have gas (but god know's how much) and i am hazarding a guess at it being the battery that is failing? (Would i still get supplied?)

Anyhow i was on hold to EDF for about 30 min's to find out that since i actually have a gas supply and they is no leak that it is not a 4 hr emergency call out and they wanted me to book a 14 day appointment with them (which ofc i know that gas wont last that long as i normally only put enough to last 2 week's on)...

So i told them that's no good and i guess i will have to wait till the gas run's out...

The problem being is what happen's if it run's out after the closing hour's of EDF (8pm i think) i will not have any supply and it's still pretty chilly out there? Does anyone know if they have an emergency line and any other way i can correct this?

Thank's.

    Why don't you book the appointment anyway and if it fails in the meantime you can call them again.
