Much to my surprise, but with iron discipline - I have successfully hit the FULL TARGET for my November Power Move Challenge! I have earned £12 off my next electricity bill - at a 6.87% rate during peak times!

Good to hear that you made 6.87% - despite the worrries that you voiced last month:

Hopefully you didn’t have to go as far as those worries, and we/you can see that you even went a bit further than needed to hit the highest target. (Always good to have a bit in hand though).

Keep it up for December and ongoing.
Watch for any announcement of changes for Jan-March, the PM times and targets can change every 3-months.

Hi ​@Sanka14 

 

I wonder if you would be interested in sharing any tips here as to how you achieved this in your particular circumstances. As part of the forum volunteers meeting recently with ​@Ashley_OVO, ​@Emmanuelle_OVO , ​@Bradley_OVO  it was suggested we could put together a short but informative Power Move Users Guide and I'm sure we would welcome entries on how to survive the 4-7 peak and still manage to have a life. I've always said that PM is particularly useful for low users but they are the group where the PM targets are the most difficult to achieve.

 

Thanks and well done on your achievement

 

Peter

Is that what you have calculated or is it what OVO calculated?  The reason I ask is I've not yet received my total use yet from OVO !!!

It depends where you are looking for it.

I can see a month-end percentage and reward figure for November on the app.

I can see that the reward has already been credited to my online account

But I haven't had an email yet.

As soneone said - Two out of Three ain't bad.

Well done! Keep it going! The most challenging was this summer with 6.5% or less for the highest tier. You are not that far from it.

Thank you!

6.5%!!! summer challenge - wow!

Unfortunately, I'll not be able to repeat my November target; December is too festive + busy to be a TOTAL ELECTRICITY GRINCH!

Please remember that Bank Holidays are also completely excluded from Power Move - and Christmas Day/Boxing Day are considered Bank Holidays for this purpose.

You can use whatever zappy juice you want during those two days without impacting PM results, even during peak hours.

A very good point! Despite I knew that, I completely forgot about that.
