Did they give reasons for why you "should" move the meter? For their convenience? For safety? I would think if there were safety concerns you would not have a choice. It would be important to understand their reasons and possible future repercussions if you don't move the meter. Since everything is now digital, no one has to get to the meter to read it so that can't be it. Maybe their reasoning is based on outdated requirements? Since you don't HAVE to move it, I assume you are grandfathered even though you may not meet current requirements. Would it be a problem if you wanted to sell the house in the future? Again, the WHY is important.
I would agree if they were insisting I would want to know why I should have to pay but you say they are NOT insisting so it's a moot point.
