I HAVE been sending my electricity readings by SMS to 083 700 0819 for several years with great success.
I get an SMS acknowledging receipt of my reading and it is always captured correctly on my bill.
To all those frustrated people the secret is that your reading should be sent through between the 16 and 19 of every month because they run the bills on the 20 of each month and if they don’t have your reading before that date you will receive an estimated reading.
Don’t send it before the 16th, it will be too early and try and use the same (or as near as) date every month.
I don’t read my own water meter but the same dates would apply.
Include your E number and meter number and date with your Electricity reading.
Hope this helps.
