One senior citizen who has extreme sensitivity to EMFs refused to allow a smart meter installation, and EWEB cut off her electricity. There seems to be no recourse here. Until this week in April 2025, the smart meters installed were allowed an “opt out” option, where they supposedly did not transmit information to the public utility. However, EWEB just notified residents that opting out was a choice that required a manual meter reading and they were proposing a $150 start-up fee followed by an additional $20/month. EWEB has more in common with Black Rock than a public utility operated for the benefit of citizens.

I was just reading your posts and was wondering how you have fared with the smart meter issue. Did you find anywhere without these toxic meters? I am in Arizona. I was able to keep the analog electric meter, had to disconnect the gas from the home because there was no opt-out option, and now the smart Neptune water meters rolled into town this week without warning. There is no opt-out and the city refuses to hear how the meter is negatively impacting my health.

some of us are literally being forced to use them. Never wanted one, opted out, they denied my opt out and forced me to have it installed including having the police on site for the installation.

If the people who move in there would not want to pay extra every month they would go back to a smart meter. I did buy covers for both of them. Is that sufficient?

Comment on FAQ: Utility Company Issues by Glenna Chance https://stopsmartmeters.org/frequently-asked-questions/faq-utility-company-issues/#comment-1234826 Wed, 12 Mar 2025 20:05:29 +0000 https://stopsmartmeters.org/?page_id=1959#comment-1234826 The latest from Rochester, NY: On 11/23/24 the “death wagon” (RGE/GridOne) ravaged my neighborhood with stealth meter switching – of which I had notified the RGE President/CEO since 1/23. Without permission or notification before or afterwards, they came onto properties and installed microwave meters. They even did it to properties that had opted out. My 2 neighbors didn’t want them but were switched. ( I, of course, have padlocks through my meter box). TRISH NILSEN, Pres/CEO, stated publicly for years that you could have your analog back but when we made the appointment they said, “we don’t have any”. I guess the hundreds they remove just evaporate. I was displaced from my medically-modified home on 11/23/24 and have lived in an unheated attic room all winter – separated from my medical equipment. Instead of simply replacing the meters, RGE has repeatedly targeted me with many hate and other crimes. The latest was removing me from the medical equipment roster behind my back and calling my doctor behind my back (HIPAA violation). In December I received – with no cover letter or explanation – damage claims forms. When I ask why they said I ordered them. So apparently NILSEN or her corporate attorney JEFFREY ROSENBLOOM impersonated me and had these sent to pacify me after displacing me. I have submitted 5 sets of these claims forms and they are never acknowledged and certainly not reimbursed. I am being charged 50/day for emergency housing on an income of 1K/month SS. Of course, I still pay for my “chernobyl house”. As of this morning, RGE’s “meter supervisor” has advised me that RGE will not disclose the locations of the collector meters. I am currently seeking a toxic tort attorney. I need to find an actual mitigation expert – not just someone who sells devices. Any ideas?

It’s now 2025, seven years later. May I suggest you do some research to see how many people have reported ailments and sicknesses, including cancer, they now have, that they never had prior to smart meters being installed at their homes. How many people haven’t put 2+2 together yet? I refuse to own a cell phone, and no smart tv is coming in this house. Nobody else is protecting me so I’m trying to protect myself. One more thing, I have an 88 y/o friend whose has had two strokes and has a brain tumor, she gets shots in both eyes four times a year. She lives alone in an apartment complex where there are a lot of apartments, each has it’s own individual smart meter. She can’t refuse a smart meter because she lives in a housing complex. But, even if she could what difference would it make, none, because there are smart meters all around her. Where’s the fairness in that?

And Edison came out and removed the digital smart meter but they refuse to put the Anelog meter that I bought from stopsmartmeters.org Edison put their opt-out meter on my house. And it is just as bad as the digital meter. I know how to change it myself. but what kind of trouble will there be if i change it?
