why is it so late getting the daily report for the day before dual fuel, have to wait until late evening to see on the web report how much electricity I have used even though having a smart meter giving reports every half hour can never get a proper answer from OVO even though several times of asking.

I see my electricity data ‘as it happens’, either via my IHD or via my data gathering system (it’s called Home Assistant).

I do know that suppliers have a level of double checking that they generally apply to accounts as they are reporting a costed value for the supply.

… signing in to the community chat it kept corrupting my password for my OVO account so …
  

It might be worth pointing out that there is no direct link between this forum and your OVO account. The two sites - account.ovoenergy.com and forum.ovoenergy.com - have their own separate sign-in systems, each requiring a username and password. The username is usually an email address, but it doesn’t have to be the same one. More importantly, the passwords should not be the same.
