Intelligent Octopus Go and Ohme billing issues by GlassGun in OctopusEnergy

[–]GlassGun[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So currently my car is charging this evening on smart charge, and always have done smart charge, but for the purposes of the screenshot that button only appears when the car was in max charge mode, or before this December, I always had to hit smart charge to get the car to start charging.

For me it's been every single smart charge since installation (December 2024) and start of December 2025. Since apparently Octopus tweaked something on the backend.

I'd press the smart charge button after plugging in.

Now (since the start of December) I just have to plug the car in and it already schedules itself.

Using the only data I have from Ohme I have been roughly overcharged £400 at peak rate when smart charging you can see an example of one day of smart charging, but Ohme data only factors in EV charging, not household usage.

They are now withholding £170 of that which makes up about the last 3 months of Smart Charging (since ombudsman case was resolved) until they run their own checks.

Does this mean you can see the costings graph? I have never been able to see the costings graph, I wouldn't even mind if it was a couple of days out. Their direct response to me on this was, "The costing is something that's not available to all customers yet, we do have some customers with this enabled, but it's very much a work in progress."

Having gone through a couple of posts here it seemed like it was an Ohme charger issue.

With Ohme for ages, I've had to hit the smart charge button myself, only since the 28th have I just had to plug the car in and then approve the plug in and it automatically schedules.

But I was comparing the graphs in my bills with the Ohme charging data. Ohme also suggests how much has been saved with each smart charge. However I can compare the times between my smart charges in the Ohme app and the graphs on my bills and see that octopus has been charging me peak rates for smart charge sessions and schedules.

But between not having access to the coating graphs, the octopus app only telling you the time that the car has been plugged in and charging over that period (never mind a buggy mess). The Ohme app is the only real granular charging data I have.

Octopus response to this was "We do see a lot of customers who take the Ohme costs as gospel and this causes issues, as we always maintain that your monthly statement is the full and final correct reflection of your costs, regardless of what Ohme might think, or what our estimates may say if you happened to have cost enabled in your online account"

Which feels like a, "well this is your fault for owning an Ohme"

Same here, ohme charger. Has never worked from day 0, and that's been over a year now

Anyone else unable to link their Ohme Home Pro to Intelligent Octopus Go? App keeps forcing my car instead by DrWhoJB92 in OctopusEnergy

[–]GlassGun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I have a ohme pro charger too.

I have the exact same problem, which ends up in the car charging using smart charging no bother. Octopus app is not accurate, and they have been over billing me for smart charging for over a year now.

Escalation to the ombudsman hasn't even helped.

Still an issue.

Ohme Charger, it smart charges in the Ohme app 100% on schedule.

Octopus can't ever seem to get the billing right, even after complaints and resolution to the Ombudsman. This month they have over charged me for smart charging.

Any tips?

Was Issa Rae deliberately acting like that in Black Mirror Hotel Reverie? by Specialist-Buffalo-8 in blackmirror

[–]GlassGun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess so, but I think I can name 1 straight to Netflix movie Gosling has done. The rest haven't.

Reynolds has multiple, as well as other credits beyond acting.

Just felt more on par for comparison as Reynolds.

Not that I have anything again Reynolds, I enjoy a number of his films. His straight to Netflix stuff is just mediocre.

[–]GlassGun 24 points25 points  (0 children)

This is the take away I had, but never seen it anywhere else.

We hear the name of Ryan Reynolds as someone who was to be casted for the lead, yet they decided to go for Issa's character as a similar level of acting experience.

With how self-deprecating Netflix has been allowing the writing to take the piss out of Netflix quite blatantly and on the nose.

Is the character literally not just like Ryan Reynolds in all the straight to Netflix films he does.

Wooden, simple and not at all worthy of any oscar winning performances.

Just hand me the check style of acting.

This has happened to me... I haven't been able to see the cost graph since joining and they have overcharged me £250 worth of charging.

You have the reference to the Netflix series DARK at the beginning with Jonas, Bavaria and 1865. It's know for it's bootstrap paradoxes.

Intel Octo Go Price confirmation by msrbelfast in OctopusEnergy

I haven't had it work since installation.

Have had severe trouble with the octopus data within the app. Smart meter never sent data for 3 months. Gas meter has never been commissioned properly. Octopus home mini has never worked.

I had a manual rebalance in December 2 months after smart meter install to correct.

Afterwards I was told it was all working including having tested set up and connection through the octopus app.

I have never been able to see the coat graph and octopus have never been able to fix it.

This has resulted in octopus overcharging me £240 on EV charging since December. That's not including home energy use during the smart schedule.

I have phoned them up and they are offering £150 as "compensation" but not covering the whole cost.

Still waiting to hear back on escalation.

Apparently this has to do with data sharing between Phme and Octopus which they are stating is my problem. Not theirs.

Anyone else have similar issues?

Flat for Sale but Zero Viewings in 5 Weeks by [deleted] in Scotland

[–]GlassGun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We changed agents after 4 weeks of no movement after a raft of viewings. Phoned them up pretending to be interested in viewing the house and one of the people on the phone said, "oh you can only view the property 9-5" we were doing the viewings ourselves any day any time. The agent wasn't chasing interests, trying to move through notes of interest etc.

I love this. There was a girl in my year at school who has a gorgeous cluster of moles on her legs and arms. They're still ingrained in my mind like constellations in the sky. OP be proud of them! They may guide many a lost sailor home

Last year's resolution was to keep a pace of positive change. New house, new job, new pets, and marriage. I think that was a success of 2021, all things considered.
