    You will still get a bill, just it will be estimated, providing a late reading may mean that estimate causes you to over pay or under pay on the older rates, but they going to bill you regardless.

    Many people with solar have smart meters. It's the easiest way to be paid for metered export (which can be worth £100s extra per year).
    @shrug643683 if you want to post a photo of your current meter and any associated wiring, maybe we can help you understand why they don't want to work on it?
