1638520625168785409 | I've just had a new smart meter installed, so much easier to monitor my energy use.... 😲. Is this something I should be concerned about @edfenergy? https://t.co/UMXp77ZY0M | 11 |
1638864001529532416 | When @edfenergy send you a final business electricity bill for £4000, make demands for payment, then after repeated disputes, finally agree it should be £220. These were 3 sets of LED carpark lights on for a maximum of 4/5 hours per night. Words fail me. | 9 |
