Are there different requests for different people on Power Move Flex?

Does Power Flex ask different people to do different events ?  There is lots of chat on Power Move about a Power Flex event at 12 - 2 today 10 November.  All the participants refer to a Power Down event but I got a message saying that it was a Power Up event.  Given the day and time I did think it a bit odd but here is the message -

Get ready to Power Up
 

10 November, 12:00 PM to 2:00 PM

Over the 18 months, Power Move Flex (as part of CrowdFlex) has shifted 864,700 kWh's and paid out over £1.02 million in bill credits.

We've had over 100,000 customers take part over the 3 trials in which Power Move Flex helped match the demand to the power being generated. So homed used cleaner, greener energy.

The trials were aimed at understanding how households can contribute to a greener electricity grid. The learnings we gathered from being part of these trials will be essential for the Electricity System Operator to plan for the future of the electricity grid, and how our customers can play a role in this. Together we've been making energy better for people and the planet. 

 

Our current trials are now closed, and we'd like to thank our users for their participation.

Hey ​@DuncanL ​@costeek 

 

Great to see you’re both involved with the Power Move Flex trial! I did check this with the team and there will be different incentives for different groups throughout the trial.

 

Sometimes you may see someone else’s reward on here for example and it could well be different to what you’ve been sent. Just make sure you stick to the events and incentives sent to yourself.

    Thought I had earned another £3 in November but OVO still haven’t sent a monthly round up.  Perhaps they decided they were being to generous.

    If you’re talking about regular Power Move, the payout for that is likely to be by next week.

    Check the app for more details!

    No - referring to the PMF monthly bonus of £3 which I was being offered if successful in more than 50% PMF events in a month.

    That was a mistake - the next event is tomorrow.

    I will check on this - please bear with me.

    The boss has whispered to me about the credits too.

    ​@DuncanL they’re running slightly behind, but the payout is about to run, so you should see those credits by this Friday at the latest.

    Let me know if you don’t get them!

    Thanks for that, Blastoise.  To be honest feel a bit of a fraud. My "successful events" rarely amount to more than a few pence and hardly merit a £3 reward.  But if OVO want to be generous who am I to argue !

    Limits of the upstream trial I’m afraid. OVO doesn’t currently have much control over the value of the rewards but it may change over time.
