You may have been lied to DJM.

But judging by that topic it was not a bad thing

EDF don't do this or you think the chap might leave the board disconnected while on the phone about the meter change ask for an isolator as well.

EDF do not fit isolators, even if they are on the job card as I have found out. EDF are the worst and most difficult people I have ever had to deal with, I am astonished they are still in business.

so what should I ask for. I really do not want those off-peak lines cut off. I need them always on like the rest

Just phone up for the meter/tariff change and when the fella comes to do it tell him what your planning to do and ask if he could leave the off peak board live.

He should leave it in some Henley blocks for you or maybe leave it bunched into the meter, which is frowned up on but would leave your board live.

Let us know how you get on.

Will key you guys posted.
Before my original post I have emailed EDF. I was a standard email back from them today, but from a individual's email address, so I wrote back asking for clarification and when I know the best way to proceed, I'll book it in.

If they can annotate the order to state to keep it live, that is best.

not getting very far over the phone, asked an EDF guy who was in the area and said that the metering department might leave it live.

I was going to phone to book an appointment and the text I was going to ask the assisstant to type in was:

"please ensure that customer's off-peak board is left live and not disconnected when meter is changed"

should that suffice, or should I include a reference to the Henley blocks?

Also from the technicians PoV is it better for have a morning or afternoon slot? When is he more likely to spend a little time doing it the way I would like?
