Power move credit still not showing on November bill updates, no confirmation email either!

Hey @Tricia 
 

Please expect a delay in payments this month due to a slight change to how your Power Move data is calculated. The team has provided an update below regarding some recent issues with collecting data from smart meters and the changes that were made to improve this for everyone. 

“Our consumption data collection and calculation process previously ran from 1 pm each day, collecting consumption data from the day before. We've since identified that some data now doesn't return until later in the day after the calculation process has been completed, so for the day before you may have been classed as 'no-data' which is why some of you may have seen in your progress update that we don't have enough data to calculate your progress.

We've now moved our process to run later in the day and have been testing to ensure this pulls through as much data as possible. There will still be some circumstances where we couldn't retrieve any data for a genuine reason, but the tests have seen a dramatic reduction in the number of customers with 'no data' we've had so far in October.

At the end of October, we will calculate rewards and look to pull through data from the first 2 weeks of October that have previously been flagged as not having any. We will only use this data for your end-of-month results if it positively impacts your peak %, e.g. you now earn a reward or go up a tier, if it would negatively impact your end-of-month results then we will honour the more positive result and reward.”

When they were collecting the data needed to calculate your Power Move data, the system was running too early, causing some of the data to be missing. They’ve trialled a new time for collecting the data and have seen a huge improvement so far. They’ll need to process payments this month manually, which means a small delay until the credits arrive, but it’s nothing to worry about. You should receive an email confirmation of your award.

Things should return to normal in November with the process being fully automated and the feedback we’ve had from users has helped us make improvements that are helping everyone. If you have any follow-up questions let me know!
