IGO is a little cheaper as well, 7p instead of 8.5p.

You just had to add your charger, on some page, rather than provide some actual proof ?

Re: Smart Meters and Tariffs
 

I don't understand the point of your constant posts about this. if you dislike these calls that much and you must do as you tell us all about it all the time, why don't you just block the numbers that the calls come from. If i get a call from a company i don't want to hear from as soon as the call is over i block their number. :2cents:

Re: Smart Meters and Tariffs
 

You begin by requesting to switch to Go. They ask you what car and charger you have and then offer Intelligent Go if it’s a combination they can control remotely, or regular Go if they can’t. But they then tell you you have to add it to ‘My Devices’ in the Octopus app, otherwise they bump you down from Intelligent to regular Go after 7 days.

Once they can remotely programme your charger they set up an overnight schedule which looks like this. The tiny text says the charging plan can change during the night, but never so much that it would prevent the car being fully charged by the time specified.

Interesting, good to know, if I ever need it. :)

Re: Smart Meters and Tariffs
 

I have a look at the number before I answer. They are never the same, and quite a few are from abroad.

Re: Smart Meters and Tariffs
 

If that's the only thing bothering you, just ring your supplier to have them installed.

If you don't want them then your excuses about offshore etc are immaterial.

Re: Smart Meters and Tariffs
 

I honestly don't get why people don't want meters installed. When they install your meters, they won't confiscate your tin hats as well!

Re: Smart Meters and Tariffs
 

I agree my smart meter has been excellent and saved me a fortune. Maybe it's because i don't have a Tin Foil hat and i don't believe everything so called experts post on X previously known as Twatter and Fakebook

Re: Smart Meters and Tariffs
 

Answer me this. Why have so many governments demanded of energy suppliers that they be installed or face fines if they do not?

Re: Smart Meters and Tariffs
 

because they want to be able to charge various rates across the day to everyone and then you will see heavy usage at peak users penalised across the board

Re: Smart Meters and Tariffs
 

I didn’t realise the Governments were in charge of all the Energy Companies in all those countries…

Re: Smart Meters and Tariffs
 

Here we go, Tin foil hat theory's incoming, let me get my deck chair and popcorn. :LOL:

Simples. The alien lizard creatures at Davos told them to do it, so they all complied.

Re: Smart Meters and Tariffs
 

We should make a smart meter conspiracy bingo list :D

Eventually you will simply have no choice.
Old style meters are no longer being made.
As meters expire, they will be replaced with SMART meters.

I was quite hesitant when my old E7 meter was EOL.
In the end I finally decided to take the plunge with Octopus.

I was going to do it with OVO originally, who I was with at the time, but they fracked up my appointment.
So I moved to Octopus and applied to them instead. Months later I am happy with the move and their system(s).
