Re: Smart Meter, Yae or Nae?

How are people billed when on a smart meter AND Tracker Tariff, do you get a bill once a month with all daily unit prices listed?

On a none smart meter I used to be billed after submitting a meter reading, something I don't need to do now being on a smart meter.

Edit

I have answered my own question, it's once a month around the due date.

Re: Smart Meter, Yae or Nae?

Has anyone with Octopus Smart Meters had any issues with data readings not showing up on their account and what this means for billing as my Gas Meter hasn't sent any readings for the last 3 days and I have a few 1/2hr instances missing from 7th and 10th April?

Edit

After a quick email to them they have fixed it all ready, I'm very impressed as their fix and reply only took a few mins.

Hi there

The HH data is stored in the smart meter and will be available when we come to bill your account.

If not, we can use your meter readings to bill you with the Octopus Tracker which is useful.

I have requested the half hourly readings so you will be able to see this shortly.
The octopriceuk.app/tracker site is fantastic for seeing your data, you do need to put in your account info and API number though.

I've been on the Octopus Tracker since the 11th April, I'm finding it addictive checking the rates daily using the Octopus Compare app and Octoprice site. It's nice to be given tomorrows rates the day before so you can plan in when best to put the washing machine on etc and the Compare app also shows you your daily realtime Electricity £ savings after telling it your API and meter info which is nice as you can compare to other tariffs of your choice.

Saying that the Agile Tariff if too volatile and restrictive for me to use that.

I am staying on tracker for now, In other news Octopus are investigating shell energy who i moved from for submitting my handover reading to Octopus twice with the second reading over £1500. Octopus are well aware the reading is massively wrong . They checked using the reading from the last year i was with shell and compared them with the reading they are seeing now and knew there was funny business a foot. I am so glad they had my readings from my meter to compare day to day .
