MG HS PHEV and an OHME Charger - Can I be on Charge Anytime?

Hey, just got an MG HS PHEV, Ohme charger and went to swap to the OVO Anytime tariff (10p) to then find out my car is not listed (actually no MGs are) so looks like I cannot move onto the tariff?

 

has anyone else have an MG and found the same? Is there an alternative tariff or does it look like I now need to change provider as currently paying 32p flat rate all day which for the car works out not that much cheaper than a gallon of fuel.

Ohme chargers are no longer be compatible with Charge Anytime. We’ve recently updated the technology behind Charge Anytime. This is so we can keep making improvements and create new products that reward customers for driving EVs.

 

It's not been possible to integrate Ohme with this new technology. If you have an Ohme charger you’ll still be able to sign up to Charge Anytime by connecting with an eligible vehicle. We’re constantly looking to open up the eligibility to more EV models so if you don’t see your EV here, keep an eye on our page.


You can see all eligibility details in our Charge Anytime page here.

 

Update all working and automatically charging off peak and only charging 10p per KW. Because the MG HS does not have API it means the charger cannot talk to the car, it all works as it should but you get some qwerty messages on the app saying and on the ohme box, I just ignore now as charges as I need it do so. I am sure if the car had the intelligence to talk to charger would be better, but not a function of the MG maybe as only Hybrid
