Feed in Tariff (FIT) or Smart Export Guarantee (SEG) payments - who to contact if I have a query?

Hi @bxcfilm, 

I’m sorry to hear this.

I’m going to have our Forum_Support team reach out to you so they can help you further with this. Look out for a private message here soon: https://forum.ovoenergy.com/inbox/overview.

Many thanks!

Hi, it would seem that I am not the only OVO customer that can’t get a FIT payment, we also were moved over from SSE to OVO and have not received a payment since 25/05/22. It would seem that all records seem to be lost, when I sent a reading in OVO said it was too high so I sent them a photo of our meter ( more than one ) and emailed, spent literally hours on the phone being promised we would get a payment, “ just wait till the end of the month “. Well, many months have passed and todays call ended the same as all the others, its on its way, but I cant tell you how much it will be, so What the hell are OVO playing at ? and what can be done to move them on to being honest and admitting their service is not as good as they say. Sorry to go on but this is how I feel after another fruitless call.

Hi @RogerB8,

I’m really sorry for the issues you’ve been experiencing, that’s definitely not the experience we want for our customers.

How do people see F.I.T. tariff statements? It seems impossible since ovo took over from SSE. I use to

get statements regulary with SSE but no since 25/11/2022. Can anyone help me please.

Hi @bobbymore1966,

I’m sorry to hear this. 

You should receive your FiT statements at the start of May, August, November and February. If you haven’t been receiving them please reach out to the team on 0330 303 5063 and select ‘4’ when the IVR instructs you to do so. You can also email the team via fits@ovoenergy.com. They should be able to help further with this.

Think yourself lucky you have a smart meter to begin with to export your generated energy. I’ve been constantly pestering ovo to try and get a smart meter installed so I can export my surplus energy from my solar panels and all they keep telling me is will be several more months before they upgrade me. I’ve been asking for just over a year now. Also I’ve been waiting over two years for my online account to be up and running. Ovo is a joke now. They couldn’t run a bath let alone a company. 

I have finally had a result with my battle to get the feed in tarifF from OVO, It has been a very frustrating time but I am glad to say that now OVO have made things right and I am happy with the outcome. If you persevere and can talk to someone, you can get a result, admittedly, things only changed after I complained on this forum.

Hi @Ggyenyen,

I’m really sorry to hear this. 

Were you given a reason as to why you’re not able to get a smart meter fitted yet? Are you able to provide some pictures of your meter set up so we can try to advise further. 

Are you/were you previously a Boost customer? I’m just trying to understand why you’re unable to access your online account. Please provide more information about this if you can.

It may be worth contacting our Support team so they can look into this further for you. I’m afraid we don’t have access to your account via the forum.

Please read the messages I sent to you Shads and here is a photo of my meter setup
