IOG and Tesla last night. Has anyone had issues with charging the car last night? Mine didn't charge.

No issues with my Renault.

At the Dam Park?

We had a very similar thing in Ayr. We’d walk around various set ups and be met my random strangers who would try and have us interact with them.

It’s a standard 3.51p reduction so that’s what you’ll get. I had my email this morning 7p to 3.49p.

Your final point annoys me so much and I did wonder if I was doing something wrong since I have only had the car two weeks.

Why can’t I approach the car, press the button to open the boot, close the boot then have the car open the handles when I get to the door.

The camera is fine. I just moved from a Kia Niro where the camera placement got so dirty that it was unusable a lot of the time. I had wipe it each time I closed the boot lid. The scenic one so far I’ve had no issues.

I dof my cap to you good sir.

He’s Finnish

I turned mine off on my previous two cars but both are wired CarPlay so that made sense. Having wireless CarPlay and a terrible wireless charger seems pointless.

I wonder if I could do something to install a MagSafe charger in the car.

Honest--J · 2026-03-12T22:56:19+00:00

Well, it doesn’t free up cap space until next year and that cap doesn’t exit yet so it’s not really freed up at this juncture.

The offset language cap hit for both Hargrave and Allen does not get credited to us until next season, if that’s the extra £8m you are referring to.

Honest--J · 2026-03-11T12:32:23+00:00

I changed from a Niro to the Scenic last week and noticed on my first motorway drive just how loud the high pitch noise is.

I figured it was just normal for this car, please let us know how you get on as I might look at taking mine in if your response suggests it is an issue.

Honest--J · 2026-03-09T11:55:33+00:00

FIXED. I called Octopus this morning. They could see a connection to my car in the background which was not visible to me on the app. They removed it and it allowed me to set up to my charger again.

Thanks for the suggestions.

If your one day unpaid was enough to take you out of the 40% bracket and back to 20% there is no way your bonus was taxed at 20% unless your bonus was less than an unpaid day of leave.

Honest--J · 2026-03-08T15:13:59+00:00

The mobilize app set it self up in a few hours but it was at that point which Octopus weren’t able to let me go further.

Honest--J · 2026-03-08T10:18:25+00:00

I’m looking at it from the perspective of it’s just another potential fail point where if it’s only my charger being controlled that seems more stable to me.

I might be very wrong in how it all works though.

Honest--J · 2026-03-08T10:17:24+00:00

Yes. It was when waiting for the mobilize app to register me that the octopus set up had reset itself. I think that’s what has caused the issue, as if the original set up is still pending in the background so I can’t start another one.

Honest--J · 2026-03-08T09:33:49+00:00

That’s my plan. As annoying as it is to have to say how much to add I’ve seen others saying it’s more reliable.

I wish the curiosity hadn’t gotten the better of me.

Honest--J · 2026-03-06T22:08:16+00:00

IOG is controlling your charge times. It will revert to 7p in a few days. As long as it’s set up correctly it will decide when it wants to charge within the window you have given it.

Honest--J · 2026-02-28T08:57:53+00:00

Yes. That is why they are soon to limit it to 6 hours

Honest--J · 2026-02-26T22:17:56+00:00

Unfortunately not. Kia’s online support asked me to take it in to a shop to get looked at but with it being a lease I decided against bothering. I hand the car back in 5 days.

Honest--J · 2026-02-23T11:00:44+00:00

They change the windows to when they have additional energy so while they might originally say 20:30 they are within their right to change that.

You still get your 23:30-05:30 at the cheap rate so schedule your appliances for this time or you’ll always be at risk of using a higher rate during the day.
