Petition Energy Co's T & C's must state SMART Meters are non-obligatory.

More details

The Government must make sure that the Energy Co's T & C's state that SMART Meters are non-obligatory so as customers can make their own choice.
As a recent article states: Hendry told the House of Commons: "We believe that people will benefit from having smart meters, but we will not make them obligatory. If people are concerned about the electromagnetic issues, they will not be required to have one. We have been willing to give assurances to Hon Members on that account" and:a DECC spokesman told us: "This is not actually new. While smart metering brings significant benefits, it will not be an offence for householders to refuse to accept a smart meter and we have made it clear that we do not expect suppliers to seek an entry warrant simply to fit smart metering equipment.
The Energy Companys Terms & Conditions need to make it clear that the Customer has a choice.
