To save energy I try and use the washing machine and dishwasher on my Economy 7 night tariff by the use of the inbuilt timers. The thing is that I assume the switchover occurs sometime around midnight and again at 7am in the morning. The Ovo Energy website says to check the actual times (which can vary) with your energy provider i.e. Ovo Energy. I can find no specific information on this online so would need to contact them. However because I manage my account online I don't think I am allowed to email them. Have tried before on another topic and never got a reply. Is there any easy way to get the info other than sitting by the meter and waiting for the click 😃

I guess what I am asking is how do I know that after 10 p m I am on economy 7 tariff?

 

You posted in the ‘Online account’ category, so I presume you have access to your online account …

Visit this page: Plan - OVO Energy. After signing in, you should see details of the tariff you’re on. It should have a Plan name including Economy 7. Lower down, you should see the applicable rates along with the times when they apply.

I don’t think there is any Economy 10 tariff with the offpeak period starting at 10 PM, certainly not with OVO. Were you perhaps with SSE previously?

 


Thanks for the reply

Yes, I’ve read the previous replies and I’m glad you found them helpful. However, your question was about the timings of Economy 7. I explained where to find them, and I expected you to discover that the cheap rate doesn’t start at 10 PM, but some time later. It might help other customers if you’re able either to refute or to confirm this, by sharing the actual timings from your Plan page. 

 


Hey @Minaxi,

 

I can see our Community Members have already given some really helpful advice here. Just wanted to add that our Support Team can confirm what your time patterns are.
