About three hours ago I took my phone to the local shop. First shop worker couldn’t scan the barcodes. Shop manager put them in manually. He said I couldn’t put more that £49 on each utility. It hasn’t shown up. Still on £13. I have issues leaving me home. I wanted to put £150 on to cover the month. What are my options and have I lost £98?
Topped up at convenience shop, top ups not showing?
Hi
Do you have the receipts still? £49 is the max top-up per transaction - but please be advised the meters can also only hold a max of about £250 credit at a time.
On the receipts should be a UTRN Code. Please punch that into your meters and the credit you purchased at the shop should transfer over. If it doesn’t, let the Support Team know - they can help with this! 0330 175 9669.
In the future, try https://ovoenergypayments.paypoint.com to top-up rather than going to the shop if that’s easier.
Hey
I’m really sorry for the issues you’re having,
I can see Blastoise has given some helpful advice here, I just wanted to add that the following topics may be helpful to you:
Still no Gas credit. Tried entering into what we think is the gas meter. We have also followed YouTube tutorials.It keeps saying ‘rejected’. I feel sick. Never had this trouble with Eon. This pay as you go it’s not a fixed annual contract is it? I can leave at anytime? £49 down the drain.
It’s possible you may have topped up the wrong meter due to an error on your part of that of the shopkeeper - that’d be not OVO’s fault as you absolutely 100% must check you’re targeting the right meter with the right barcode. However, OVO can look into this and see what they can do to resolve it - a refund may be one option.
Please call 0330 175 9669 in the morning, or use Live Chat via https://ovoenergy.com/help to use Live Chat.
