    Ignore SM for the next couple of years .
    System not working and no real benefit in having a SM yet .

    You may not get one in five years at least anyway. British Gas have been installing them for nearly 10 years and over 50% of customers still have dumb meters.
    Most suppliers have only just started installing them two years ago.
    Up to 50% of customers offered one are refusing them anyway
    Some people, and the Government have strange ideas about the speed of the roll out. The installers are working at a snails pace.
    2030 is a realistic roll out target not 2020.
