Can't change supplier Gas meter too big!

Currently supplied by EON. No problem except price!
I am a large DOMESTIC user of gas and have a bigger gas meter than most. Everybody I have tried to change to has been unable to accept me because I have a large Gas meter!!!
What is the sense behind this I ask?
Surely it is against the law to refuse to supply energy to somebody giving the reason "your meter is too big"!!!
I know that a shop can refuse to serve you because they"feel like it" but as a consumer of energy in the UK I should be allowed choice surely ?????

    Are you over 60,000 kwh a year ?
    Never pay on an estimated bill. Always read and understand your bill
  • For large domestic users suppliers need to carry out an extra step to register for your supply.

    They need to nominate for it and this is often a manual step so best to get in touch with the supplier you want to switch to directly
