How long does it take OVO to tell you the result of one of these events ?  

Best answer by Blastoise186

No. On average, you’ll hear back within 48 hours regardless of whether you won or not.

You will NOT hear anything however, if you didn’t sign up at all, or signed up too late.

I suspect you might have been a bit too late in that case I’m afraid. It’s best to opt-in as early as possible to make sure you’re definitely in.

I’m sure I got a confirmatory message after I clicked the button to opt in but I have been sure of lots of things in life and been proved wrong !  we’ll see what happens tonight.

Well l did yesterday opt in don’t know if l achieved that or not. have to see if l was successful. l do usually opt in for the hour ones. find them easy then trying to cut down through the week.

No, but I think I might have been too late in joining.  I have since noticed that if you click on the opt-in button you always get a message saying “Congratulations You Are In” (I can't remember the exact wording) even if you are way too late.  Perhaps OVO should ask their IT people if the button on the e-mail can tell you that you are too late if you have missed the time.

There might be one coming up you never know. maybe tomorrow who knows. just wait and see. l usually opt in if it is convenient.

There is nothing to lose by taking part but there have been a couple of events recently when the notice given was only two or three hours and that’s not counting the time lost before you actually notice the email and read it.

Sometimes l don’t always look at emails then and there come in from work and might have missed one. because their was a little while ago that their was an opt in. and l was working so couldn’t do that one.

If you are interested you can sign up directly with the Nation Grid ESO for alerts. Then you will know at exactly the same time as suppliers and even before OVO have submitted their bids.

Hi. I also signed up for Fri 15th and have heard nothing back buy I have heard back about Tues 19th.

 It's a bit of a coincidence so I wonder if they haven't sent out the emails about Friday 15th.

Has anyone else who subscribed to that one heard back?
