Just moved in to a house which has a credit meter on it. The landlord indicated I'm welcome to use the credit. Looks like a smart meter pipit 500 was the model.
There's £60 electric and £8 gas. What happends to this credit when the account is changed to my name?

Thanks

Dan

    one would hope that it gets returned to the previous tenant/owner who paid for it.

    would you be happy giving £68 to the next person who takes over your place
    Never under estimate the power of stupid people in large numbers
