I have been with Ovo since October after moving into a property with a smart meter. I have been opted into Power Move for months but all what i see on that page is ‘Were setting up your smart meter’ if no update in 48 hours, contact us. Has anyone had this before? I can see my usage on the other part of the website. Just not on power move

Hey ​@Jordong1990 

 

I reached out to the Power Move team about this who’d like to try and fix the issue, it’s something that usually does fix itself as some of our other users have seen, but requires contact to the Support Team when it takes a while. The are hoping they can do it without you having to take that step to Support now you’re already here.

 

I’ve sent you a PM if you could reply, I’ll pass the details to the team so they can attempt to resolve this for you.

I find the best way to contact OVO is via the Messenger function on the OVO Facebook Page. It beats sitting on the phone waiting for it to be answered.

    Howdy! Just gonna sliiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiide in here for a sec.

    Official contact methods can always be found here:

    Just so you’re aware, OVO no longer uses WhatsApp as a contact method as that one was disabled last year.

    I’ll see if I can ask someone I know about this issue, please bear with me.
