    Out of interest.  If you have a separate company for gas and electricity do you need to arrange smart meters separately ?
    You would need to have the electricity smart meter installed first, and then contact your gas supplier to arrange the gas meter.

    Thanks - I hadn't realised there was a specific order in which it needed to be done.

    Thanks for the confirmation.
  • Got my readings on the website now, so can I set up a variable dd online or do I need to ring/chat with them?

    The gas meter is battery powered so uses a short-range to the comms hub, the comms hub needs to receive mains power from the electricity smart meter, so that is why there is a specific sequence to this.

    Anyone else still waiting for BG to show the initial reading? I’ve entered it at least 3 times now and still both the app and account don’t show it
    My initial reading is now showing & I apparently can now set up a fixed monthly DD online if I agree with their amount.
    However, their suggested DD amount is more than 2.5x what I reckon it should be given my usage ...
    Same here and there's no avenue on the site to challenge it.  By the time the 6 month review came up, they'd be sitting on £225 of credit.  Nice work if you can get it.  

    Ah, hold on.  After I submitted a 2nd reading a few days ago, they have now recalculated the amount to roughly what it should be. If you submit a mid-month reading I imagine the DD amount should subsequently be recalculated after a couple of days.
  • So when should we send our next log of meter readings?  Or do we wait for BG to ask for them?

    I believe they ask for them but for the sake of good housekeeping I just enter them every so often.

    Why should the administrators phone you individually? Surely all due payments will be made via your account in due course.
    By coercion  if necessary.
  • Had my final bill from NR estimated at 20/11 from a reading I gave them 22/11. It was close enough. But my NR account has now updated to show the reading I gave to BG when asked on 3/12.  This is also shown in my BG account as my opening reading.  No idea what this implies for the supply between 20/11 and 3/12, but have others seen similar?
