Hello,

i realise that my description was not very explanatory so may this picture might show the issue. If i select KW/H I get a view of my monthly usage but I

get no costs except for just 1 month. 

Hey, welcome back @CinderKona ,

I have to admit that’s rather strange to see if I’m being honest. This looks like a possible account-specific bug, so you’ll definitely want to reach out to the Support Team in case they’re able to help. If you move quickly, they might be able to retrieve historical usage data from your Smart Meter to backfill everything that’s missing.

If I can think of anything else, I’ll let you know here, but there’s not much I can think of and I’m not seeing this issue myself on my own account.

Thanks. The problem is I cannot send them this screenshot as OVO has no email address. I've raised via the phone but they just don't seem to understand the issue.

Oh ok, I can solve that one for you, piece of cake.

Try sending it to hello@ovoenergy.com . That’s the main contact email address and anything you send to it gets put directly in the queue for the Support Team to pick up. The email option on the help pages is set up to be automatically replaced by live chat whenever live chat is open and switch back when live chat closes. It kinda makes sense to do this, as it means the fastest and slowest contact options are switched around based on what’s available.

If you send the email correctly, you should get an auto-reply back within 90 seconds confirming receipt.

Once again @Blastoise186 giving the goods in terms of the best means of reporting account-specific bugs like these, @CinderKona.

A lack of usage costs data isn’t something we’ve seen here before and I suspect that even the month that is populated might not be accurate (unless a property’s empty - £4.47 for a months usage would be quite surprising!)

Our Support Team should be able to get this raised to our Tech team if we’re not able to explain the missing data here so attaching the screenshot to an email and sending that over to us will really help to identify the issue.

Have you checked the amount you’ve been billed for these months? You can do this on the ‘Billing’ pages of your online account which also allows you to scroll back through your previous months energy costs (albeit not in a handy graph format). It’s worth remembering that these usage graphs should be considered an extra tool in helping you to manage your energy usage and may not always align to the amount you’re charged each month.

Hello,

Thanks for replying.

the first month is accurate as the house was unoccupied before i moved in so i am quite surprised that all subsequent months have no £ values - it cannot be that difficult to calculate the £ value from the KW/H.

Yes, i know that i can open each bill individually but if you have a dashboard why should i need to do this?

I have asked intermittently via a call to get this fixed for nearly a year now.

I’m so sorry to hear this is an ongoing issue for you, @CinderKona.

As you mention already raising this previously without the missing cost data technical issue being resolved, it might be worth raising this as a complaint with our Support Team. This may allow the issue to be more fully investigated and any cases raised to our Tech team prioritised.

I hope this helps get the usage graphs back on track. 

The app has suddenly stopped showing usage costs. Displays only kWh consumption. Is this a temp glitch or permanent?

Hey @Amaryllis11 !

Are you looking at the Daily tab by any chance? That’s for half-hourly data and currently only shows data in kWh form. If you’re after day by day data, it’s under the Monthly tab and has both options, while Yearly shows a month-by-month view.

Tks for this reply. No, I’m looking at all tabs. Used to show costs and kWh on all. Currently on none. Are you saying your app still shows costs?  In which case I wonder why mine has ceased to do so !

I used to be able to toggle between costs and kWh. No more is that option available on my app

@Blastoise186 if useful

  IPadOS 15.4.1  / ovo app  14.3.3 / codepush 337

& Android 12 / ovo app 14.3.3 / codepush 340

showing no issues with kWh-Price toggle here.

Tom…

Problem solved. Just noticed a new para in the app under heading ‘daily usage’ which apologises for current lack of cost info.  They’re ‘working on it’. QED. Tks for your comments. 

Has anybody else experienced that you cannot see the daily cost of your usage?

Hi @Whizzy63 ,

I’m afraid this isn’t supported right now, but it could be! :)

If you’re looking for the cost for an entire day though, check the Monthly tab and you should find what you’re after.

Hope this helps!

Hi, I have checked the monthly tab and it is just showing kw’s used not the daily/hourly cost. It is just saying…. See below. Any ideas? Thanks

Looks like we couldn’t find some of your usage data

Ooohh OK. I think I know a few fixes for this, I’ll try one of the more common ones first.

There might have been a temporary issue in retrieving the data recently. Could you try an app like Hildebrand Bright and see if you can get the data that way?

Thanks will do. All my past costs have disappeared.

Ahh… I see.

If all your usage cost data has vanished, it might need to be rebuilt. OVO’s Support Team would be best placed to take a look in that case.

Ok thanks for your help.
