We have a range of information leaflets regarding different aspects of community safety and also Neighbourhood Watch Scotland is partnering with E.ON Next to help reach communities most likely to be affected by the upcoming Radio Teleswitch Service (RTS) switch off on 30 June 2025.

Energy Advice:

Some types of electricity meter (regardless of energy provider) need to be urgently upgraded.  The Radio Teleswitch Service (RTS) switch off is happening on 30 June 2025 and will affect households using an older electricity meter to heat their home and hot water. The implications of not upgrading the meter could mean that the heating and hot water may not work properly. Customers could find that they cannot switch on or switch off their system and could incur an increased bill as a result.

It is crucial that affected customers arrange for a smart meter to be fitted before the switch off on 30 June 2025. 

If you’re an E.ON Next customer and unsure whether RTS affects you visit the E.ON next Website at:

You can book an appointment directly on the website.

We hope to see you on 4th June, best wishes the Neighbourhood Watch Scotland team.
