On Economy 7 but with single display meters

  • This sounds to me like a sub-meter system - with the main electricity meter being under the control of the landlord. Might that mean it's going to behave differently to what the OP might expect if it was a "proper" meter as one might get installed through an energy supplier? 
    Yes thanks,this is what we have I believe - the landlord has the main meter and we have sub-meters from that. I’d hoped we still warrant the right to be able to check our readings against our hill despite being on secondary meters but maybe not - I’m not sure

    Who do you pay your bill to?
    We pay to the landlord - I should’ve said, we’re in sub-meters to his main meter if that makes a difference to whether or not we should be able to see peak/off peak readings or just a single overall reading

    It makes a huge difference.

    If your meter doesn't record peak/off-peak readings but your landlord's does, then they are allowed to split your readings based on how they are split on his meter (or by any other "reasonable" method).
