Energy monitor not matching meter reading

Hi

I have recently put in an electricity monitor from owl to check my usage as i am now paying £220 a month for a 2 bed flat.

In the last 24 hours my monitor states that I have used 7 units but my meter reading shows 15.

Has anyone else experienced such variances? I know they are not 100% accurate but this is WAY out.

Thanks

    Your very accurate energy monitor, the meter itself, is the one to trust. Apply for a proper energy meter when you can, a smart meter, they are spot on and convert your usage into hard cash, weekly/monthly
