If you’ve got a traditional pay as you go meter, the above below from Blastoise186 is how the debt recollection should work.
If you have a smart pay as you go meter, this does work differently - Once we’ve added the debt to your meter, your daily charges will include:
-
Payment towards the energy you’re using
-
Your daily standing charge
-
The daily debt repayment amount
Even if you’re not using any energy, you’ll be paying a daily standing charge and a repayment amount. Topping up regularly helps to cover these repayments and your energy use. You can find more on how this works here.
Hi @mquinn ,
Nope, they're both paused while using Emergency Credit. Collection will resume on the next top-up though and will sap whatever wasn't taken on schedule.
You'll still pay them, but you don't pay them immediately.
Securing energy by zapping security bugs... For that is The Blastoise Way! Remember, I'm just like you - AI Powered Evil Geniuses aren't Staff!
