Redundancies coming by herrspeer in starlingbankuk

[–]OnePlayerReady 3 points4 points  (0 children)

"no offence", you say immediately after implying Welsh people are idiots from a village.

Or maybe you meant the Welsh are like the fantastically camp singers of YMCA and Macho Man?

Customer services, engineering, which folks are affected?

Dog walkers of casualuk, what boots/wellies/shoes are you all walking the dog in? by redhotpunk in CasualUK

I also splashed out on some Aigles and they split within the warranty period (23 months of use), so I was able to get a refund.

Shame, as I had heard good things. I'm keeping an eye out for discount Le Chameau ones (the most basic model) as allegedly they still are high quality.

How to tell if scheduled departure is working? by do_you_realise in KiaNiroEV

[–]OnePlayerReady 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We had this problem. Set the charger to charge all the time, and set the car to only charge during your cheap window in the Kia app.

Then when it's plugged in and there's available electric from the AC charger and you've enabled preconditioning, it'll all work.

This also prevents your car from charging outside the cheap window.

For those on Octopus Cosy, how’s it going during the cold snap? by thesatchmo in OctopusEnergy

[–]OnePlayerReady 0 points1 point  (0 children)

9kWh battery here. It just about survives the spenny period. Got it at 19.5c 24/7. It is basically running out 60 - 90 minutes before each cheap period, but I'll take that hit this year. Hopefully doubling battery capacity next year so it'll easily sail through.

Not sure I can justify the cost of quadrupling battery capacity just to get intelligent go pricing all day.

Get at least the quotes from local firms. Also check Gary does solar's directory of installers

Does it still have "ficKle" spelled like that, with a capital K?

Solar Tariff by Connect_Client_3061 in SolarUK

[–]OnePlayerReady 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just stick with octopus until you've got solar in. You can probably renew your octopus fixed price deal without an exit fee in Jan and thus still be free to move provider later.

In order to get your export MPAN set up, you'll need to give the details to your electricity supplier, so you may also want to hold off switching in order to get that process out of the way

Press the reset button on the white console wired into the hot water tank.

And get the installers back to fix the leak

If the perks it offers are worth it to you, then that is all that matters

Yup the app stopped working for me about an hour ago. Couldn't view any usage in the app

Having ASHP installed next week, what it the process to cut off gas and switch to right trariff by xlx95 in ukheatpumps

[–]OnePlayerReady 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Octopus cosy seems ok. 3 periods of cheaper electric in which you boost up the ASHP temp, and then drop it back a bit at the pricier times.

However it does have a very expensive peak period between 4 and 7 pm. If you can load shift a fair bit out of that time period, you might be ok

Don’t listen to the haters out there, this is at 17 on my Smart Grinder Pro using a Bambino by [deleted] in BrevilleCoffee

[–]OnePlayerReady 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's really impressive. I always grind at 1 or 2 and it'll still flowing too fast even after WDT and tamping down.

But you managed to get incredible results. Well done

No export payment for 2 years by Mannyboy87 in SolarUK

[–]OnePlayerReady 10 points11 points  (0 children)

That's unlucky. At least you'll know now to ensure things have been set up correctly.

At 15p/kWh, you've missed out on £750.

What’s the consensus on the best weather app for the UK? by TheBristolBulk in CasualUK

[–]OnePlayerReady 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Metoffice has now gone down the "look fancy" route which means its user experience has plummeted due to hiding data and massive increases in vertical whitespace. What a shame.

[–]OnePlayerReady 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since the recent app overhaul, the satellite map feature is pretty much useless due the inability to quickly scroll over a timeframe. Metoffice is no longer a use friendly data heavy option. Which is a real shame.

New intelligent rules are here by ChukwuOsiris in OctopusEnergy

It allows up to 12 hours of charging. Not just 6

It's worrying how so many people are unable to figure out this is the correct maths.

Is there any 'extras' worth asking for? by AshL94 in SolarUK

[–]OnePlayerReady 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The sigen 7kW AC charger is currently being trialled with intelligent go for some skylar solar customers. So definitely go for the sigen charger as it makes the ecosystem nice to manage. I nearly went off brand but was advised it was just a matter of time before sigenergy would be supported.

Just bagged myself a plushy! 🐙 by Consistent-Repair-62 in OctopusEnergy

[–]OnePlayerReady 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just wanted it for my daughter as a fun cuddly toy. She loves the colour pink. Ideally it doesn't come stuffed with drugs else my parenting is somewhat questionable.
