Economy 7 meter

Hi all

Was just wondering, and didn't want to hijack someone elses economy seven thread, can I ask npower to bill me on standard rate rather than e7 rates?

Worked out that we would pay around the same if we were on npowers standard flat rate, and it's less hassle!

Would it mean getting a new meter fitted?

Cheers, J

  • i think it depends what supply region and supplier you are with...

    some systems can sope with just adding the units together - others can't and need to fit a new meter.

    Some fit meters for free others charge.

    Best to phone supplier and ask situation for your circumstances

    :confused: I have a poll / discussion on Economy 7 / 10 off-peak usage (as a % or total) and ways to improve it but I'm not allowed to link to it so have a look on the gas/elec forum if you would like to vote or discuss.:cool:

    Thanks for that, just spoke to them and they are fitting a new meter for us free of charge.

    No more night time dishwashing or laundry lol!
