How do I see top up receipts/history on the new PAYG app?

Hi, I’ve used the new app today but it hasn’t sent me a payment receipt via email or text like the old one did and I cannot see top-up history anywhere in the new app. 
I have notifications enabled etc same as on the old app so I’m not sure how I’m meant to get a copy of my receipt.

Hey ​@lornacw,

 

I spoke with the team, and they informed me that if you top up through the app, you will not receive a payment receipt unless you are a guest topping up on behalf of someone else. 

 

 

If you click onto the fuel type, i.e. into the ‘Electricity’ section or ‘Gas’ section depending on which history you want to check, you should be able to view the top-up history in there.

 

 

 

 

You can view your top-up history by selecting the option at the bottom of the screen. This page will show all top-ups made using the new app, but it will not display any top-ups made on the older app, as they're two different apps.

 

I hope this helps 😊

That’s great thank you for confirming that.

i was worried about not having the payment receipt code if the top up didn’t go through but now you’ve pointed out where I can find the top up history I’ve found the top up code is connected to that so that has eased my mind.

Hello,

I just read a thread on here about where to find top up history on the new Ovo app.  The reply said you can find them at the bottom of the screen.  I can't find where that is.  Can someone enlighten me please?  Thank You in advance

Hello,

I have been wondering about this very same thing.  I have looked all over the app but can't find any Top Up history.  Can you tell me where to find it please?

Hey ​@hallj12345 

 

If you click onto the fuel type, i.e. into the ‘Electricity’ section or ‘Gas’ section depending on which history you want to check, you should be able to view the top-up history in there.

 

 

If this isn’t appearing in there, could you please take a screenshot of what you can see when you click into one of them.

Hello,

Thank you for your reply.  Yes I can see the top up history and the top up code if needed.  Thank You for explaining this to me.

The new app was working fine for atleast a month. 

 

What on earth has happened in the last week or two. So many nonsensical issues and changes out of nowhere? 

You can't send me a new IUD or whatever is called so surely the app needs to reflect the correct balance at much regular intervals?

Hello,

When I looked yesterday I noticed a top up done on the app for £6 on 19th June wasn't showing.  It   seems to be only showing top ups done on line though.
