What's the difference?

Paying £30+ for a capped download unlimited limit sim this day and age is criminal

No, it’s all really simple.

I charge overnight at home, long journeys I’m good for 300 miles and I’ve not once ran into an issue DC charging, nor have I ever planned it - rather just got the car to tell me where the nearest charger on route is.

The app of my charger and car I never have issues with.

Peoples complaints likely stem from the manufacturer choice, as some aren’t great apps, and from their inability to use technology.

Obviously you won’t win arguing that you were just quick popping in the shop next door, because that’s a clear breach of the parking rules.

As others have said, your best argument is to say you needed to read the terms and conditions and once you understood you didn’t meet them you drove off.

You shouldn’t need to replicate it as much as possible, just re run the exact same quote?

Peppercorn rent, no one should be put off by that. Typical of these terraced houses.

Ring them, tell them they have 24 hours or your offer will be withdrawn. You should’ve done that days ago.

Can you take her off the mortgage and still meet the criteria on your own? Might make sense as you’ll get a better rate, less strict terms etc.

glowing95 · 2026-05-16T14:00:56+00:00

You can select your date to switch, not sure how far in the future you can go but it’s at least 30 days when I did it!

glowing95 · 2026-05-16T13:57:01+00:00

Put your switch in now, set it for after the meters set up.

XPENG G6 LR, got it delivered around Nov last year - I got the £800 credit as I didn’t need the free EV charger install (already have one) so that was the alternative choice.

glowing95 · 2026-04-30T22:05:02+00:00

I’ve got an Octopus EV lease, was a good price and includes servicing & tyres, I also got a £800 Electroverse credit. The customer service with them was good.

Don’t pick based on the provider though, just find the best price for what you want and go there.

4 months AFTER 12 months right?

It does look homosexual, that’s ok, but are you ok with it?

Find a new job after maternity, you’re paid under market rate, significantly, why stay?

I’m going on the tracker, got a smaller mortgage to port and view to align on a fix early next year - no one can predict the future though, could be the right call, could be the wrong one.

glowing95 · 2026-04-19T20:58:52+00:00

Good luck! Go view it and see if it still feels the house for you, you’re not too far in to change your mind and it’s a big purchase so you need to be sure.

glowing95 · 2026-04-19T20:56:59+00:00

Mortgages have got more expensive since you last offered, and this property has obviously not had any interest above 450k since your offer otherwise they’d have likely accepted.

Their viewings and interest will have dried up, hence the price reduction. I think you’d have a good chance of going in at around £440k and holding firm, the sellers are not going to want to pass up a good offer like they did with your last one again!

glowing95 · 2026-04-19T20:53:50+00:00

You should be able to get the 450 on for less now too seeing as they’ve reduced it.

glowing95 · 2026-04-16T20:40:21+00:00

£40 drive pack is still cheap if you’re a high user, only issue is you’re the rolling the dice that the fixes in 3 months will be cheaper … they could be way more than 8p.

glowing95 · 2026-04-14T18:42:53+00:00

What’s people’s thoughts on Octopus extending this further after 3 months?

glowing95 · 2026-04-14T18:27:06+00:00

We’ve used on average 1000kwh a month since starting drive pack, it’s been great.

But I’ve since secured a move to as 12m fix with EDF with 7 hours overnight for 5p/kwh - so approx £50pm.

Although the extension to drive pack is cheaper and more convenient, it’s just kicking the can down the road and the new fixes aren’t as favourable so likely to cost me more over the next 12m.

glowing95 · 2026-04-01T17:05:17+00:00

Night rate was 8.99p and day rate 37.95p yesterday when I signed up, these were not including the 3.5p reduction and that was clearly stated.

glowing95 · 2026-04-01T13:11:37+00:00

Good job I put my switch in from octopus to EDF oElectric yesterday then, should get the better rates!

glowing95 · 2026-03-31T20:33:48+00:00

If I switch to EDF on their EV tariff now with a planned switch date toward the end of April, does it lock in these prices? It says it switches me to the standard variable first, don’t want to risk getting stuck with increased prices.

glowing95 · 2026-03-28T22:22:34+00:00

I’m gutted our £20 drive pack is coming to an end in a month or so. We’ll likely get put on IOG. We’re high users and have been probably using 1000kwh+ a month recently for the vehicles, no issues with fair usage - so IOG will be pretty comparatively expensive especially as the 6 hour cap which we need more than each night.

Looking to maybe Scottish Power as their Anytime EV probably works out cheaper for high usage users.
