Hey all,

 

Apologies for the issue this morning.

 

I’ve checked this with the team who confirmed there was an issue, but this should now be resolved and you should be able to access your account no bother again. And if you’ve not got the app yet, It's free to download from the App Store and Google Play.

 

Do let us know if you’re still having issues so I can feed that back to the team.

It’s probably just you, I’ve just tested and it’s working fine for me.

Test details:

Device Codename: Dewott w/ Android 14 & One UI 6.0

App Version 19.0.0/CodePush v440

Try it again.

I have tested both the app and MyOVO just now. Both are working for me.

Please do all of the following:

  1. Download the actual OVO Energy app from https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ovo.energy - if you click this link on your phone, it’ll go direct to the Google Play store and bring it right up. This is the app you want to be using, not the web browser that you have been using
  2. Update ALL apps and make sure auto-updates are on for them, as per https://support.google.com/googleplay/answer/113412?hl=en-GB
  3. Update your device via Settings > Software Update - keep doing this until there’s no more updates

I still cannot reproduce the issue. Please use the mobile app, NOT a web browser. account.ovoenergy.com is the wrong place to go - it’s https://my.ovoenergy.com .

In that case, this seems account specific. Please let Support know via https://ovoenergy.com/help .

Please also try from the mobile app, it’ll help with diagnostics.

Website also down for me and some of my friends

 Seems to be a wider issue impacting some but not all users 

App is fine for me.

I see someone has posted the same issue on the ovo twitter page as well.

I suspect it will come back soon so won't bother logging a call.

This is from a phone.

account.ovoenergy.com is where the link on the ovo home page takes me not https://my.ovoenergy.com ?
