Looks like I've had a week's worth of smart meter data go missing :( hoping they can sort.it in time for me to sign up

Is anyone else getting the "You can't join Saving Sessions right now" message when opting in to the session?

I had exactly the same when I switched last week so obviously not as strange as octopus make out :)

Definitely on IO, not sure about Go "You're an important part of our advances to a zero-carbon future and our latest upgrades mean we’re now able to offer the higher paying Outgoing Octopus to our Intelligent Octopus customers. By choosing Intelligent Octopus you’re part of Europe’s largest...

Probably not the sensor then 🙂 mine still locks but I frequently walk outside to hear the music playing

I've got an issue with the climate staying on along with the screen and stereo. Booked in on Friday to replace the sensor in the driver's seat.

I grabbed an API key for solcast yesterday so good to hear it's useful. How close do you find their predictions to be to reality?

Thanks, apparently any development work is on pause following the acquisition. Hope they start again and improve their app soon! Their support person did try to sell me one of their evios chargers, not quite what I was after!

I think I've secured wife approval for a solar install so I'm starting to look at charging options with the Andersen we have installed. Their website is a little sparse on how it works so I emailed support and they replied saying I can choose how much solar to use in the app. I already have the...
