When will I get access to my online account?

OVO have treated their customers who are on their legacy on-line portal very badly. OVO decided not to inform customers by email that their on-line access had been suspended and have failed to pro-actively keep us informed of when our on-line access will be restored. Despite being assured on multiple occasions that on-line access would be restored by the end of 2023 this is now promised in Q1 2024.

 

Customers need to let OVO know that they need to keep us regularly informed and make it a priority to restore our on-line access by the end of January not the end of March 2024.

 

A selection of my recent correspondence with OVO is below.   

9th December

“I am afraid I have no infinitive date on when you will be migrated over to our upgraded system, where you will be able to use the app.  When we spoke some time ago, we said end of the year However, let me take this away and see if I can get an update.”

11th December

“We are currently working towards getting a defined date for when you would be able to get back into the App, as currently the working time frame for this internally is End of this year into the beginning of 2024, however we will see what we can do to find you a defined date on this.”

22nd December

“I have been asking around to find out more information on the migration, and I have been told it will all be done by end of Q1.”

Thank you for the response. Could you advise how long those “On Line Accounts” have been “Off Line”. Whilst you are working to fix things who  or  what seems to be the problem. OVO no doubt rely on accurate information to be able to operate the business. Can we assume that the system procedures require a  Business Systems Analyst to help correct things and get them moving forwards?

OVO energy used to have a customer facility where one could check usage and billing and actually increase or decrease the monthly outgoing payments? There has not been this facility for well over a year now? Is there something drastically wrong with OVO energy?

I can do all that on my laptop in my online account portal, have you set one up?

There is also an app for phones if you’d rather use that:

This, of course, assumes that you can access your on-line account which I have been unable to do for just coming up for a year now.

Hi 3Phase, it's been well over a year since Ovo said they were migrating accounts, personally I think it's disgusting that it is taking this length of time. 

When I moved into my property I inherited Boost PAYG I almost wish I was still on it as at least I could see what I needed to on the app and on the meter.

I have also asked for my monthly DD to be increased which I was assured would take effect from 1st Jan 24, didn't happen!!!

Not impressed with Ovo cust service tbh, thinking of switching suppliers!
