    There really needs to be an industry-standard that requires suppliers to inform consumers of the registers in use which should also be shown on all statements.
    Something like this, perhaps? 

    Isn't it amazing how advances in technology can actually move us backwards in some respects.

    Sadly, that only works if the supplier gets the setup right at its end. I am guessing that a change of offpeak period from 0030 to 0430 to 2030 to 0130 may have caused the register change. As is the case with most smart meters, getting access to the Kaifa register matrix isn’t very intuitive.
