Economy 7 bypassed fitting of storage heater

Hello.
Can anyone help me please.
I had Elinur storage heaters fitted in June and just noticed after submitting meter readings that my economy 7  has been bypassed.
Is there any possible reason for this?
Thank you

    Is the idea that these heaters are time controlled, and you need to set the timers?
    No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?

    Yes. They can work that way off one 24hr supply or from a switched Economy 7 and 24hr. Easy to find out by checking if one or two switches near the heater.
    If one switch, the timers need to be set to charge exactly at the off peak times.
