Do you still stick the little paper tickets in them?
nah they did away with those old meters because people were stickinga loop of wire in the slot to get free electricity lol

all card meters are set at a higher rate so you pay more than people without pre pay meters , if you dont put money in you dont get electricity period infact when gas meters run out of money and your NOT using any gas even if you switch teh gas off withthe lever the meter will still clock back money on the clock
