Why has my Geo In Home Display started showing gas when I have no gas supply?

Hi,

It’s a trio touch button in-home display and it was fine for the first few months.

 

I only have electricity and that’s what it displayed until a few days ago.

Now it has a split screen showing gas and various gas options.

Gas Usage is 0.0 of course, but I’d like to make the electric display full screen again.

 

Unplugging it overnight didn’t help.

I also tried deleting settings and then data.

Really strange to see this error popping up on your Geo IHD, @Panikos.

 

I wonder if it could signify some communication issues between the device and your electricity meter. Any ideas @kevinmcintyre09?

 

Not sure if it might be a bit OVO-specific but we do have some advice on checking this connection on this similar thread,
 

 

Have you reported the error message yet, @Panikos?

That’s very strange ​@Nwefie. Please contact the support team about this. 
 


It would be great if you could keep us posted as this topic doesn’t seem to have a clear answer about the root cause of this issue. I’ll do some digging internally & see if I can find out why this might happen.

this problem has been going on for years and no sign of being fixed , when i first had it ,it showed current usage and total usage . now i have to press the arrow to flick between both screens as gas is on one side . to me the software designers are just no interested in fixing it as it still works

it’s cheap as chips and will probably not get fixed, last time support sent me out a new one but as I’m moving abroad I’ll just let this one sit but I wanted to update the thread so others are aware.

No update on this, it would require another new in home display and to be honest I’m moving abroad so I’m not chasing it up. 
 

there seems to be an issue where for some reason out of the blue it just goes belly up. Also the new tariff has not been updated since it changed on my meter so it’s pretty useless as it stands.

Really sorry to hear this ​@Nwefie! Thanks for popping back with an update 🙂

I think the best thing to do would be to check usage on the app in the meantime. As support had already previously sent out a new one & that didn’t work, it sounds like an account specific issue unfortunately. 

Exciting to hear you’re moving abroad, have an enjoyable time.
