Out of scope. Forum Volunteers on the OVO Forum aren’t expected to moderate or curate any content on off-site platforms - the same is true with the Forum Moderators. Since it wasn’t posted here (nor by OVO using official accounts), we’re not responsible for it. If I choose to do so, it is solely at my own discretion.

As I mentioned, you should do your own research. I think it’s best to otherwise move on and not get too hung up on TikTok. Likewise, it is not my place to try and force my views onto you, and I don’t wish to do so.

It’s about OVO. It’s the information you have mentioned. I tried to verify that information. Agree, let’s move on.

If a forum regular reported winning the £2k I suspect that it wouldn't be long until some saddo shouted “Fix”.

I can well understand any winners (of anything, not just a PM prize) not wanting to make their win public.

PS. I've got another £2 this month - so under the current PM rules I'm 2 for 2 for £2 (without even really trying TBH).

Indeed. It’s also why myself in particular would be unable to reveal such a win. There’d be a 5,000% chance someone would immediately call me out over it via insert mean comment here

Even though I obviously cannot influence the draw in any way, shape or form*, the risk to me from revealing such wins - specifically the backlash I’d probably suffer - means it’s not worth saying anything. I’ve already dealt with far too many forum trolls in my time...

I imagine that some other winners don’t want to say anything for similar reasons.

*The way the prize draw for Power Move works is on the list of things that Forum Volunteers are deliberately restricted from knowing much about - we know it exists, but not much else.

Cheers ​@costeek and ​@wkeithg on reflection I think the word “average” is used so that if someone hits only 10 (say) of the 21 weekdays in March, for example, then their daily average would still hold for a pro rata reward.  I’m imagining a scatter of relevant weekday PowerMove %points on a monthly graph plotting Y axis kWh against the X axis weekdays, where a consumer’s average between the diverse points would well be represented by a single horizontal line, which could then be called their average peak hour usage. 
 

Anyway, I guess we all know intuitively what’s meant, and I’ve come round now to understanding the use of the term “average”, as one person’s total of relevant days in any given month, for a variety of reasons, might well not be the same as another person’s  total days, but by using their daily averages one could still compare their PowerMove performance for their relevant days.

I hope under “saddo” it wasn’t meant anyone particular. 
 

Don’t say information you cannot verify. Especially, when you are in a position representing someone else (even voluntarily). That was my point.

Not anyone in particular, just serial-complainers / serial-moaners in general.

I'm a forum moderator elsewhere, (a software company forum,) so I do tend to come across quite a few of them.
