My OVO energy

Good Afternoon all.Does anyone know if OVO have specific plans for those on Low Income / Universal Credit?My mother passed recently, I am not able to work at the moment, and I am currently in a 3-bedroom house (Downsizing in future) meaning full Housing Benefit is not paid due to the two extra rooms. This will be the case until I can find more suitable accommodation  in my local area, and it leaves me with very little each month on which to live. I’m not seeking to pay by Direct Debit, but I do pay online each month when the bill arrives. I was just wondering if OVO have a cheaper monthly tariff for those with low income.

Why have I been charged exit fees (£150) when I am moving out of my house to a new house which already has an energy supply? 

We purchased a property that had lay empty for some months prior to purchase.  Furthermore, we’ve not lived in it we have cosmetic renovations undertaken.The previous tenant was with OVO on PAYG for gas and electric so we thought for ease we would stick with OVO then instructed them to switch to meter supply, which we did, OVO having advised that we had smart meters.  Over the course of the month, the contractors have reported the power going off on 3 to 4 occasions, having top top up the PAYG card.  On every happening, I have contacted OVO and they have said it has been transferred over to meter. To compound the issue, just over a month later, the first bill is showing daily usage despite nobody living in the property, on both the gas and and electric.  Furthermore, the contractor has notified us that the gas has been capped off!As a side story, the adjoining neighbour has informed us that when the previous tenant was in our property, they use to top up the PAYG and the credit went on

Hi, I have just moved into a property which you supply. I want to submit my readings and fix my bills but the suggested price is £129 a month. This seems very high as there is only myself in the property. Is this just an estimate that will change once I submit my meter readings?

The calorific value is needed by the Smart Meter to convert the volume of the gas to the energy produced by the gas Kwh. As this varies on a daily basis what value does the meter use? Is this the same value as used by the bill?

I moved house over 18months ago and moved to a new supplier. All bills were paid. I am now getting harassed by debt collectors as ovo have linked the period since leaving the house to my phone number due to a trace and search but not my name, so they won’t give me any information regarding the account. I have spoke to ovo who won’t stop the collectors ringing me as they need to find who is liable. What should I do?

I’ve been having ongoing issues since our migration from SSE on 20th February. Still getting nowhere and have made 3 phone calls to the customer service team. Made a formal complaint and all they could say was they can’t access my account as it’s still in the migration period. It will take another 10 days for my complaint to be resolved even though my previous complaint (10 days ago) hasn’t been resolved yet.  can you tell me what the complaints procedure is? The guy I spoke to at resolutions was super creepy and told me to go and look after my kids 🙄

Hi everyone,Getting desperate for help now.  Ovo have last month billed me almost £3000 for a 3 month period back in 2020.  I have a separate final bill received back in 2020 which shows as paid, in fact it actually shows a credit balance.They are now persistently threatening me and chasing for the £3000 which I clearly don’t owe them.I have phoned multiple times, I have emailed them as per their complaints procedure (on 18 July) (removed by moderator).  I’ve had no response to my email; when I phone they say it will be sorted.How on earth do I get the complaints team or frankly anyone at Ovo to actually address this issue please?Thank you for any advice.. 

After being moved from quarterly to monthly billing last year, I usually receive an email showing the amount to pay shortly after the bill end date each month, after which I proceed to pay.  However, I have not received the usual email last month, even though My OVO account shows the bill available for the corresponding period. When I was on quarterly billing, the OVO customer service team confirmed that I only had to pay after receiving the ‘Your bill is ready’ email (every 3 months), even if My Ovo account showed interim bills available. I’m not sure if this still applies now or not.

Hi,   I have a smart meter why do I get estimated readings on my Bill? I thought a smart meter would know my correct readings.   Jonboy.

There are 5 meters in this property (3 Phase supplies). Each meter servicing a different potion of the property. (Underfloor heating , Lighting, Utilities and defunct equipment on the property). The billing reflect MPAN numbers for Heating meters (3) and separate meters for Lighting(2). The supplied monthly bills do not detail which meter reading (actual or estimated) relates to which meter. In order to establish reading data to each meter i am keeping a separate spreadsheet. Could these bills not show “Meter - Reading “ for each meter with their MPAN no alongside?

Help! I am on a commercial electricity tariff  (not OVO) and want to change to a domestic tariff (smallholding that is not generating an income). I cannot find anyone to help. Will OVO let me switch to them? Thanks

Hello,I have been using the New Ovo app for payg and I logged in to top up and my meter balance has disappeared.  I went and topped up online instead, but the app keeps saying an error has occurred.  Do you know if anything is wrong with the app as the Top Up website is working OK.  The app still has all my other details there but not my meter balance so I cannot top up on app.  Thank You for any replys.  It says error 404 if that helps.

I currently have a domestic three phase meter in a barn conversion and with eon, they confirm the meter is listed as domestic but when trying to change to OVO you can only see commercial meter on echo or evo, eon have checked and says everything is. Correct what am I supposed to do 

Why does it take so long for monies paid to show on your account?

I went for a 1 year fixed rate economy10 last August & all was working well until yesterday when Ovo suddenly without any notice or consultation changed me back to a variable plan & the different higher charges from August. What on earth is going on!

Why does my meter have to have zero credit before they will send and engineer, when the web page states to ring before your supply disconnects?

We're victims of the termination of heatpump plus too. I'm speechless and out of pocket after changing to OVO, getting the Internet connection for the heatpump and, after complaining, a smart meter fitted. Even now this tariff is still being advertised. OVO staff seem not to have been informed of this change, as we were told we could go straight onto the tariff as soon as we had the smart meter. Oh well, off to another energy supplier I suppose. Very disappointing, to say the least.

Why, when I faithfully provide meter readings on time, each month, does OVO still give estimated readings on my bills?

For the past 3 months my bill (Economy 10) has been wrong when it comes to Off-peak energy. Peak energy and Standing Charge are spot on but Off-peak is out by a few pence. Like this:Off-peak energy use 1694.781 kWh at 22.06p £373.95Peak energy use 261.497 kWh at 27.14p £70.97Standing charge 30 days at 59.00p a day £17.70The Off-peak should be £373.87.  There must be a glitch in their software because two specific figures when multiplied gives only one answer!  Anyone else noticed this?My emails to OVO haven’t changed anything so my hope is that a Mod here has access to someone who can actually identify and fix this issue.

I moved into a new property (owned) in December. It had pre-payment meters for gas and electricity with a key and card for top up. I had smart meters installed on May 3 and on May 15 received an email from SSE/OVO advising my final bill had arrived and could I log in and pay it. I have not received a bill and have never used emergency credit on either meter. After two hours of phone calls speaking to six different people, a two day chat and thirty minutes on hold today  I am no further! They advise I owe £60.27p however no one on any call or message system could confirm how or why I allegedly owe this amount, or whether it is for gas, electricity or a combination of the two. I have not received a bill and no one has been able to send me another copy of it. I was hoping to transfer to being a direct debit customer but I’m not sure about this as you don’t seem to be able to get finance correct when I pay in advance!  Any other pre-payment customers  receive random emails about bills that

why do ovo even though ive never missed a payment and im £110 in credit continue to threaten to raise my payment by £ 80 a month ,we are in the middle of a pandemic people are dying or losing there jobs and we get these threats to nearly double monthly payments based on ovo and there crystal ball and what you may or may not use energy wise over the next 6 months

I have my meter readings but cannot see how to submit them

We have acquired the freehold of a property with  6 leaseholders. There is no separate  electricity supply for the communal areas.  Instead the supply for communal  lighting, sockets emergency lighting, smoke alarms etc.   is all taken from and paid for by  one or other of the leasehold properties.   So we want to rewire the property  installing an extra meter in the switch room  through which  all the power for the communal areas will be taken. The total electricity consumption  for the property should not change and on that basis we have been told the existing  3 phase supply to the property  will be adequate for the purpose.  How should we proceed?
