In a number of cases, if you have a credit meter, you will see numbers in the digital display to say how much money is apparently in the credit meter.
However in smaller writing it will say whether it is in credit or debit.
Electrical credit meters will still provide you with electricity even after you have run out of credit, however, this will just be just a few pounds, as the electricity supplier does not want you to go without electricity say overnight when it is cold. There will be enough credit on the account just to provide you some heat and light until you can get to the shop to recharge your electricity card/key.
Credit - means that you have still got some money on your credit key for your credit meter.
Debit - means that the money has run out on your credit key and it is now time to go to your local shop to get more money put on the key.
At Bright Spark we have often been called out to properties where there has been no electricity and the key has not got any credit on it.
You also find this issue when you are renting a property and have just moved in. The previous tenants may have taken the key with them, so you will have to speak to your electricity supplier or speak to the shop where they charge your key up with credit.

A rapid response An item of household electrical equipment decided to fail. As a result, many electrical circuits in my Home closed down. I contacted Bright Sparks, and an electrician quickly appeared. He calmly checked the circuits and solve the problems. Well done.
Thank you for attending my “Emergency Call out” there was smoke coming out of my socket. I telephoned at least 15 electricians after 7:15pm (in the evening) when we discovered the smoke coming out of the Socket. Their phones not even being answered. The next on my list was Bright Sparks, who were the only ones to answer the call - literally within a couple of rings, and was answered by a lovely lady who reassured me that help would be on the way. The Call was sent to your emergency electrician who called back within 15 minutes, and was able to attend within the hour, and fix the problem. Thank you. Excellent Service
Thanks for Louise's great work - very happy!
I would highly recommend Karen and her team for any electrical jobs you have. From the moment I first emailed my enquiry the service was super quick (I appreciate this depends on their other jobs at the time). We received a quote that was clear with the works to be done and price was reasonable. On the day the electrician (Joe I believe) turned up on time, did a fab job and even tidied up after himself. The old ceiling lights we had were a little tricky to get off and pulled some of the plaster off too, but he filled it in and made it as good as new.Great job from beginning to end. Thank you Bright Spark
We found the service to be friendly and pro-active. We had an appointment quickly and the engineer was able to find the issue, which was not straightforward, within an hour and rewire the effected ceiling lamp and resolve the issue completely within 2 hours. Very methodical and accurate working - most appreciated!
