ESB Networks has apologised to customers for any 'confusion and concern' caused by a glitch giving out incorrect readings on electricity smart meters.

ESB says it was an internal error, following a software upgrade on Friday.
Speaking this afternoon, Charlie Weston - Personal Finance Editor with the Irish Independent - says 'the network is reviewing the system to ensure it doesn't happen again.'
