Hrmm think I'll go pre-paid as its cheaper, and if in credit can get it refunded back earn 3% interest on it, or adjust it accordingly

OVO also confirmed its a typo on their sign up form re "no free usage window", the free window does indeed apply, so will sign up today, thanks again all

Now I can charge every night not worry about dropping battery below 30-40% and doing it once a week on weekends during full sun/solar, now I can just top up every 2nd day overnight :)) exciting!

P.S. Enjoy your $120 Sam! :)

Bills will be estimated for the 12 months, not sure how it works but you can always change to post-paid later if it doesn't work out.
Next person to sign up with OVO please use my referral :)

damn so how many kWh do you use a month or a year, seems not much at all?

im doing approx 7000kWh a year I put into the estimator and my monthly figure came to $133 a month with OVO,( fam of 4 ducted a/c etc etc)
 
It varies from month to month. Dec - Jan we were away as it was the holidays.
I think I initially estimated $96/month when I signed up. I also shifted my hot water heating to run off solar which helps to keep the cost down.

Nice yeah I guess I overestimated but with OVO having the 12am to 6am benefit and 3 hours free daily, changing our usage habits should bring my estimate down and I end up with credit monthly :)

Matte screen protectors fitted.
Not sure if im happy with the fit or finish.
Certainly less glare and finger prints but they seem a mm too small all round.
