I've mailed Octopus for an explanation.I had Saturday's (3rd Dec) reading missing. Tweeted Octopus this morning and soon after the readings appeared. I also had a failed charge on the night of the 3rd/4th and a message from the tesla app saying charging stopped at 12.47am. Had to leave to go out with 56% battery but got home with 6% left. Charged without issue last night to 70% and got slots for 11.5 hours. Thinking of getting a CAD (glow stick looks good) so I can see instant usage while out. (Thanks @Tony Hoyle )
Me neither.As everyone received their bill for last month yet?... Im still waiting
Because it's against the tariff ToS and they can kick you off it.So with the new Intelligent Octopus the off-peak is 11:30 till 5:30... I don't see anything to stop you from just plugging in the car and setting it to charge in those hours and getting that rate like we do with the old Octopus Go? You only need to use the Octopus app to take advantage of the 'best' green times?
Just thinking outside the box, I don't believe I've seen that IO requires the 'main' Tesla account to be used.I'm looking for advice from anyone who has IO & swapped to a second Tesla.
I currently have two cars on my Tesla account (3 & Y) and the older one is going to be used by my Daughter for a month or two, then I will sell it.
Last night (forgetting that you can only have one car) I removed the Model 3 via the Octopus app, tried to sign up again ....because as far as the app is concerned all trace of IO including 'reconnect device' has vanished.
Inputting Tesla Model Y LR, Zappi 7kWh etc went through fine (& the sign up page recognised 'you are already on Intelligent Octopus') but adding my Tesla account credentials resulted in 'unable to connect' (tried 3 times).
It then dawned on me that of course my account still shows two Teslas!
I seem to have 3 options:
1. Ask Octopus if there's some way for them to allow my new car to reconnect (the 3 will be at a different local location & never charged at my home again). This seems unlikely.
2. Remove the Model 3 from my Tesla account - but that seems like it might create problems in that it looks like it's sold but won't be yet.
3. Inform Octopus but ask if I can continue to schedule charges on the Y for a couple of months (no long journeys planned so not needing a lot of charging).
Option 2 would be the 'cleanest' as that will give me the correct setup going forward. If so, would creating a second Tesla user account and asking Tesla to transfer the car over to that be possible? I can forsee issues with their inflexibility and transferring the VIN & ownership back to the same person with just a different email address. Knowing Tesla this will become a real mess when I eventually want to sell the car.
(....an option 4. To 'not tell Octopus anything & just carry on charging the Y via schedule' is against my nature I'm afraid, especially as they will be able to see that I'm still on IO but apparently no longer with an EV)
Any advice is appreciiated
how is that even possible?I’m still on GO. I tried IO but found it too complicated compared to GO. I just plug in and walk away, no messing.
If only that was true for everyone! IO just didn't work for me, more often than not it would come up with a charge schedule so switched back to GO for stress free charging. Willing to give it another try when my Go rate expires.how is that even possible?
IO is also - you plug in and walk away, no messing. but 2 hours more.
I've only been on IO for about 4 days, but for two of those I plugged in at 6pm and got no schedule by 9pm, so was getting worried (I needed charge!). I went out, unplugged the car and plugged it back in - boom, schedule arrived almost straight away.you plug in and walk away, no messing. but 2 hours more.
Can I just ask, when you do first plug the car in what stops it charging straight away if no schedule has arrived at that point?I've only been on IO for about 4 days, but for two of those I plugged in at 6pm and got no schedule by 9pm, so was getting worried (I needed charge!). I went out, unplugged the car and plugged it back in - boom, schedule arrived almost straight away.
Last night I didn't plug the car in (wife's car was charging) but got a schedule delivered anyway at 8pm...
I'm sure it will settle down and turn into 'plug in and walk away' without worrying as confidence grows
Remembering I have only a couple of days use, and currently I have done nothing else (nothing set in the car)...Can I just ask, when you do first plug the car in what stops it charging straight away if no schedule has arrived at that point?
