We have unresolved smart meter issues (another story).  Recently we have been reporting gas and electricity meter readings to OVO by telephone.  Today (1st September) I checked the electricity meter (an EDMI ES-10A) to find that the reading was unchanged from the one I reported on the 31st July  and instead of “IMPRT” above the number on the meter screen there was just a capital A.   

I don’t know what is going on, could someone please enlighten me?

 

Hey @Lorenzo1979,

 

Sorry to hear of the meter issues you’re having, 

 

Blastoise has given some super helpful advice here, I just wanted to clarify the following…

 

If your meter screen is frozen, the supplier is liable to replace that faulty meter. They would need to re-bill for the period that the meter wasn’t clocking any consumption, but this should be based off estimates from your previous and subsequent usage.

Thank you for your reply, I am with EDF, made them aware more than 2 months ago, apparently they just decided to send an engineer to replace the meter. 


 I meet the same problem that the Ovo electric meter is frozen and just show R. The reading hasn’t charged for few months. I call Ovo but they can’t solve this problem and I cannot top up my account now. Have you solved this problem? If you have could you tell me how to solve this? Thank you very much!


Hi @matthewxjx ,

You’ll definitely need to get that replaced. Try Live Chat - it’s faster!

@Blastoise186 i have called them for many time but they still don’t come and always miss the appointment without any notice.


In that case, your next stop is https://ovoenergy.com/feedback .

Please review all the options on that page before choosing one - but you can’t go direct to the Ombudsman unless you’ve done all the steps prior first.
