I’ve had one on my home for the last two years. No difference. My point is there are a lot bigger fish to fry.
Same here for the last two years. If anything I have been able to monitor my own use and have been able to slightly reduce overall consumption.
So they can’t call their state Senator then move on to the next fish?

They (Atmos) installed the new meter at my house about two years ago, also. I’ve lived here for 27 years and do the bill-averaging payments. I have seen no change in my normal billings with the new meter. .....What kind of new data could they collect with the new meters, other than peak usage times at my house?
Oh, there's a very big difference, and it's in the data that's been collected on your private electrical usage.
I highly suggest doing some cursory reading on the subject to get at least a rudimentary understanding of what's going on here.
We’ve had one for over five years. Our bills have been the same as when they are manually read. We also have a water meter that the city just drives by, and it transmits our water usage instead of having an employee open the cover and read usage.
The utility department can give you an hour by hour printout of any month. That actually helped us, when we had a lead between the meter and house. The city looked at the start date and when I fixed the line and gave us a cost adjustment.
