Thanks...we are electricity only with OVO as there is no distributed gas here.

I have done the health check twice and told to wait 45 days…. its now 83 days.

Do you suggest I call them or email/chat OVO

Hi @Scalpaynewbie given you say loop is working it is certainly worth a try. It doesn't sound like a meter issue as you say. 

I would recommend sending a private message via the ovo twitter or Facebook page. 

The ovo staff there can make the change as they have access to your account

In the private message you need to include your name, address, account number and date of birth to pass security, along with your request to change your electricity meter reading frequency to 30min.

It is probably easier than waiting on the phone or webchat as you don't actually need to speak to anyone. 

Give it a week after the request and see if anything changes 

For up to date information about the current price cap please head to our website. Or check out this helpful FAQ to find out more about how this may impact you and what support is available:

Hi @Tom78 and thanks for flagging this. 

 

Are you able to go to the Plan section of your online account and confirm the contract start date shown? What are the unit rates for this?

Have we been in contact with you via email to advise of moving to the variable rate, Simpler with the Energy Price Guarantee
