Has anyone else just got a letter from the ESB claiming a meter reader couldn't read the meter for over a year as they couldn't get access to read it.
I doubt this as they never previously had trouble getting access to it. My parents also got such a letter even though the meter is on an outside wall without any barriers to access.
I suspect they just want to cut their costs by getting customers to read the meter themselves. If this is what they're doing they should come clean about it. I wouldn't mind. I just don't believe them when they claim they tried to
get access. No calling card was left.
The ESB shops used to give out keys to open the meter cabinets but now that the shops have closed down how are they going to supply them.
