It is so important that people with RTS controlled heating and hot water get in touch with their energy supplier about a meter replacement. The signal that controls it is being shut down, end June 25. Only a new meter can ensure that you stay on supply. Real risks.

🏠 We’re calling on the Chancellor to fully fund the £13.2bn Warm Homes Plan in the upcoming Comprehensive Spending Review.
Making homes energy efficient isn’t just about staying warm in winter—it helps keep people safe and cool in summer too.
New figures show over 1,300 heat-related deaths in England last summer, even though conditions only triggered the lowest-level alerts.
Older and vulnerable people are most at risk—and with energy bills still high, running fans or coolers can be unaffordable for many.
Insulating and ventilating homes properly protects people year-round.
✅ Lower bills
✅ Safer, healthier homes
✅ Prepared for a changing climate
Let’s invest in solutions that work in every season.

The Radio Teleswitch service will be switched off from the end of June. If you have an RTS meter, you will need to get this changed. Please urgently contact your supplier to avoid losing access to energy or constantly pay peak rates.

The Radio Teleswitch Metering service will switch off from the end of June. It is important for stakeholders to understand what this means for the people you support and how you can help them take action.

Simply not good enough. All 1st gen smart meters, not working in smart mode, should have been fixed or replaced by end Dec 23. But instead numbers are growing.

If you are in energy debt, you should talk to your energy supplier for support. Take a meter reading and speak to them about a repayment plan. They may be able to help look at what further support you may be entitled to and the best way for you to pay. #DebtAwarenessWeek
