Never booked any appointment or anything like that, so felt pretty dodgy to me.3 monthsGot a phone call from someone pretending to be BT, saying they had to swap out our smart meter because UKPN supposedly said it was necessary. That’s rubbish since UKPN isn’t involved with smart meters at all. I ended up reporting it to the police.
