Does anybody else get stressed about their energy company keep pressuring them to get a Smart Meter? I’m getting so sick of it and this time I think they’re trying to scare me into getting one and I’m so stressed about it. Does anyone on here have an answer to this problem? I’m thinking of switching to Octopus energy, but will they just do the same and pressure me to get one as well?
Any advice would be appreciated regarding this.
"I've told you no. I don't appreciate your company's disrespect of my boundaries. I mean you no personal harm, but I'm hanging up the phone. Thanks." And hang up :) You can be kind and firm. They can move on to annoy the next caller on their list. I've been doing this with EE. Sometimes they hang up on me first, problem averted.
Yes - a good approach! I like to be polite but you’re right - you can be polite but also very firm. Thanks :)
