Pre paid meter woes
Morning,
Does anyone know if there is a way to contact SSE on a Sunday? I've inherited a pre paid meter in the house I've just moved into, but the card I had, plus two others I got from the shop, refuse to accept any credit.
I have inserted them all into the meter before trying to top up, no error messages on the meter, then when I go to top up they get an invalid card error in their machine. I have tried several shops with the same result. I've also tried several shops for a new card, but only one in town seems to hold SSE ones, so I don't know if that shop is carrying a dodgy batch.
Anyway, my gas has run out now (idiocy on my part, but I've never used one of these meters before, and didn't anticipate it running down so fast, nor that it was already in the emergency credit) and with 2 young kids in the house, i need this sorted today.
Thanks.
