Every energy firm has a deadline to fit smart meters or they risk getting fined by the gov, unless they can prove they've actively tried to convince their customers to have one installed. So don't go blaming the power companies - just keep turning them down!

This isnt the genuine npower phone number, its just another con trying to scam people.

I was driving through a part of town I don’t know well, trying to keep up with Google Maps, when this number kept ringing. I hung up to focus on driving, but they called me 5 more times in a row! Thinking it might be something urgent, I pulled over only to discover it was Npower, about a meter. It’s pretty worrying that companies think it’s okay to keep ringing non-stop like that.

I picked up and there was nobody there.

Npower keep calling about a smart meter deal. Honestly, why dont they just send a letter or an email or something? Their voice recognition is rubbish anyway - they must be aware of how many calls drop because of it.

They rang both my landline and phone. I ignored it cos I never pick up unknown numbers. I’m considering switching my service, so not ready to make any decisions just now.

They keep ringing my phone quite early in the morning, and I'm really unwell. These callers really ought to try a government office if no one picks up. Surely the officials will think about all of us shielding with plenty on our minds, facing something close to death!

Npower keeps ringing and texting me non stop. Really sick of it now.

With the latest smart meters, power firms now have the ability to disconnect your electricity remotely. The government is currently looking into this. Energy companies can switch your new digital meter to a pay-as-you-go mode without physically coming to your home. Specialists warn that these smart metres provide companies with unprecedented control over users, including access to detailed info about your energy consumption. While the big energy providers say they haven’t yet used this function, they do acknowledge it’s technically feasible.

N-power calling about those smart meters once more! Told them loads of times I’m not bothered.

npower rang me asking if I wanted to upgrade to a new smart meter. I agreed and they gave me a time slot, so I waited in all day. But they never showed up. Honestly, I’ve lost trust in them now. Can’t blame me for planning to switch providers. Hope the company actually sees these sort of comments, or they’ll be losing a lot of customers.

Got a call from npower about a smart meter again. Told them I’m not interested, have my own already.

Me bein an NPower customer doesn't matter at all - I've said loads of times I don’t want a smart meter from them. Keep phoning and messaging me about it anyway is basically pure harrassment.

Loads of folks moaning about it being a pest call, but seriously, it’s just NPower trying to get in touch with their own customers!

Got a missed call from this number today, after they sent me a couple of texts last week saying to reply ‘yes’ if I wanted a smart meter installed, plus an email saying they’d booked an appointment even though I didn’t agree to it. I checked the number and saw it’s from npower, so I know what’s going on. I’m not interested in a smart meter, so I’m ignoring the call. Thanks to everyone who shared warnings about this!

Got calls from Npower smart meter, when I pick up there's nothing, just dead silence or sometimes I get their answerphone. They just keep ringing non stop, it's getting proper annoying!

I've put this number on my block list before but they still manage to ring me off and on. Today alone I got 4 calls spaced just a couple mins apart around noon. From what I've read here, it's probably npower pestering about smart meters. Each time I just let it go straight to voicemail. Honestly, I can't see the point in having one of those smart meters in my place.

Yet another annoying call, ugh.

Put Bedford down as well! I didn't catch their call but cheers to everyone who shared their experiences - now I’ll be sure to steer clear.

Npower rang up and asked for me by name. They wanted a yes or no answer. I just laughed and told them they’re blocked. The TPS list is pointless.

Like others have said, it’s a recorded call supposedly from NPower about smart meters. We don’t pick up, just let it go to voicemail. We don’t want one anyway, and we’ve already told our energy company (which isn’t NPower) that.

nPower keep banging on about this smart meter stuff. I've told them loads of times I’m not interested, but they just keep pestering me non stop.

So annoying gettin loads of texts, calls and emails about smart meters. I’m well aware how to switch off the unused electrics cheers!

I didn’t pick up, but figured it could be npower since they’ve started emailing me again to confirm the smart meter install date. Could be legit, but I’ve told them loads of times I’m not interested in getting one.

There’s no law mandating us to get these ‘smart’ meters put in. It’s a total rip-off, even worse than that PPI mess! The constant nagging just shows that, same as when they pushed PPI on us clueless shoppers before.

Constant bother from NPower about my smart meter, getting seriously annoying.

yeah, its that npower smart meter deal, if u think u can avoid getting one ur wrong. could be worse i guess, ive got an electric prepay one, my electric provider (not npower tho) insists i get a smart meter too. i have to buy electric vouchers from the post office, which is a 30 min walk, and they shut at 5:30pm and noon on saturday, closed all sunday. brilliant!

like a few before me, this is npower ringing to arrange a smart meter fitting, even though i've told their smart meter dept twice now that i dont want one and never will! honestly, this is just harassment and i'll be complaining to ofgem about it!

Got a silent call from this number. If it’s really npower, it’s shocking how a company meant to serve the public can act like this. Proper disgrace.

got an automated call saying it was from npower, offering a smart meter and told me to press 1 if interested. could be legit, but since i’m not keen on a smart meter i just hung up to be safe.

got a call from someone pretending to be npower, kept pushing this so called snoopmeter. ive told them loads of times we dont want one. we can manage our usage without their devices! the only ones saving cash from these meters are the companies and their big investors. why do we have to put up with this constant bother when we’ve made it clear we dont need their meters? we aint gonna gain anything from it, but plenty of workers might lose their jobs because of these things.
7 years
got a call about a smart meter. yet again! they keep calling and posting letters nonstop until you finally call back to say you don’t want one (which you cant say on their online form). i told them i’ve said this at least 6 times now and they say sorry and ‘make a note of it’. but then a few weeks later, it all begins again. wonder who’s footing the bill? take a wild guess.
