Smells a bit fishy to me, why should it concern anybody in Belgium how supplies are metered, they won't reduce your usage, only an excuse to raise charges.
If utility Co's need to know how much you use, they should pay for the dammed meters.
While on the subject of charges, why should we pay line rental for telephones, I've paid enough in line rental to have my own private wire to Australia, why have we to pay for a bit of wire, when were not using it, as well as that, we are also charged 9p per call before we even speak.
Retlaw.
