npower is one of the main providers of gas and electricity in the UK and that means when you need to ring with meter readings, you are competing with other people who are ringing for various other reasons.  That’s why this new npower meter reading telephone number can be used to provide those crucial readings.

Giving a meter reading is a great way to ensure that you have accurate bills and aren’t paying for a general figure devised by the company.  Npower ask for regular meter readings for this reason and you can submit them over the internet but it can be just as easy to ring this new number and speak to a real person.  

You can also use this number to query your bills based on past meter readings if you think they are inaccurate or might have been taken down incorrectly.  The company will be able to track through your past readings and let you know why your bill has changed, so if your usage levels have increased or decreased.

The number is also available for queries around the new smart meter program.  The government is aiming to have most houses converted to smart meters by the end of the decade and npower are one of the companies involved in the program.  

You can use this contact number to find out more about the scheme and to see if it is available in your area and the costs involved.  The use of smart meters means you no longer need to ring up to give meter readings after it is installed and ensures your bills are always accurate.

Finally, if you need someone to visit the property to take a meter reading for you, you can use this number and they can arrange for someone to come and do this.
