I'm on pre-payment meter, anyone else been looking around for cheaper? USwitch, MSE etc seem to have the old prices when doing comparisons...
Yup i got one last week. very annoyed with it. Switched away as soon as i got it. I just went with Bulb. more expensive but worth it to get away from Eversmart.Laters

You'd have thought that transferring basic address data would be automatic but I guess that it's format error between databases.
I think that they simply didn't request changeover of electricity - that's what Octopus said. They just made up that story about the address being different to save face. Someone else has just confirmed that their switch went ahead without a house number being quoted!0 -
I've finally had a very brief reply to my email asking them if my Switch did occur on 12th Sep:
"Good afternoon,
You went live with us on the 12/09 and I have re sent a create an account email for you.
Kind Regards"
Short and sweet! 5 mins later I also got my logon link, have created account and will enter a Reading, of which currently they don't have one showing.
Hopefully soon Octopus will now be able to send my final bill and refund.
edit: unable to enter my Reading, just get error, I've replied to them with correct reading today, will have to see what readings get posted from Octopus and Eversmart n the future.0 -

Yes, I just had exactly the same. Email received, account set up, but would not allow me to enter a meter reading. Perhaps it takes a little while to sort itself out.
I'll try again tomorrow.0 -
None of us have been able to enter meter readings, it's a fault on their website.No free lunch, and no free laptop

I might be really dumb but my account is showing a minus amount, does that mean im actually in credit , if you read my billow it should be + not - ?

Is there a general consensus about the best way to send them a meter read if the website doesn't work. Does phone, sms, or email seem to work best? Any experiences?0

My rent account is the same. Shows - for positive balance.
It is right, as a - means debt.0 -
