Electric Meter Stolen -- Any Experiences? Cost to Replace?

[Alexa K.]

I recently had the electric turned on at my first rental property yesterday. Visited in the early afternoon, flitted around with the lights for a bit, and made sure to turn everything off before I left. Well, I went back over today to do some work and found that my electric meter has been stolen. Not really sure about what the protocol is when it comes to this, and there's no way I'm contacting my insurance company because I don't want increased premiums. Wondering if anyone's had any similar experience, and if so, what did you do? Did you have to replace the meter? How much did it cost? I'd love to contact my electric company but they're closed until Monday.
