Please can you advise on the below?

On the Smart Charge app, on the "savings" tab, the cost for the charge doesn't add up.

 

For example on 3/10, I used 4.3 kWh, the cost should be £0.43 based on 10p per kwh. But the cost is showing £0.71.

Sorry, but your post doesn’t seem to make sense. It’s written in a way that suggests the expected and actual saving is the same?

I have edited the post. 

Another example; 13.9 kWh on the 4th Oct which should be £1.39 but the app is showing £2.32.

Hi @DWYT Its my understanding that the numbers you are see there are the saving for that charge not the cost. in earlier versions of the app it Said ‘saving’ and not ‘Smart Charge’ 

 

The change to the wording is very confusing.

 

To check you can take off the 10p off your electrical rate on your tariff then multiply by the Kwh used you should get the numbers in your screenshot 


Good tip, thank you @Chris78 - we will remember this for next time!

 

Numbers add up, @DWYT?


Hi @Tim_OVO @Emmanuelle_OVO ,

 

I have been trying to find out how I get the actual costs of each charge - I thought this screen showed the costs and not the saving - can you confirm which it is.  and if it is showing the saving - how can I find the actual cost of each charge please?


Hi @MD123

Welcome to the community! 

This has been raised and is something the team are considering for the future but for right now isn’t available on the app. You can for the meantime multiply your kWh displayed in the app by 0.07. This will tell you the cost for each charge.

I hope this helps 😊


Hello, I am on the charge anythime plan as i ahve an ev

 

I am trying to undertsand why, when I click on the "Your EV" tab in my account. its says I have spent say £100 on electricity across house and car in a particualt month  but my actual bill from OVO is for al lot, lot more - much more than just adding standing charge

can anyone help?


Hey @Niallmac6 

 

Sorry to hear this.

 

Do you know if the it’s been billed to actual meter readings or has it maybe been estimated?

 

 

We’ve seen others have issues where the charge anytime credit didn’t match their charger data so the credit seemed to be wrong:

 

 

If you think there’s a problem with the credits, you can reach out to the charge anytime team via email at chargeanytime@ovo.com
