    Yes I knew that sorry, just thought I would mention it.

    I had a thought this morning that the installer had a slight issue crimping the wire at the front and even when it was on, it wasnt fit into the little gap in the plastic for it, it was hanging forward and when I moved I just pushed it into its correct position, and it was 2 days after house move we got the message.
    That could be the answer after Leeroy2009 s post. The main thing is that the wire seal is intact.

    Perhaps the landlord has had the consumer unit changed, thus requiring new tails between the meter and the consumer unit. This would sound the tamper alert. There would be no need to bypass a credit meter.
