Should be even better as the days get longer.That would have been export between the 15th March-31st March as the lower export rate of 22.98 p/kWh started on the 1st April.

My transition to FLUX export seems to be in progress but received this email today, hope its just an automatic response but I have not changed my supplier, anyone else receive this when moving their FIT export to octopus?

My situation is different to yours (I think) as I only had a smart meter fitted a few weeks ago and immediately signed up to Flux. However I've too had several emails telling me I'm changing suppliers (I'm not), asking for meter readings. When I queried it, octopus did apologize for the wording, turns out the meter reading they required was for my export. Still not finalized, but hopefully getting close.mickyduck55 said:My transition to FLUX export seems to be in progress but received this email today, hope its just an automatic response but I have not changed my supplier, anyone else receive this when moving their FIT export to octopus?

I left my FITS generation payments with my existing supplier, just moved my exports over (thought it would be quicker), and didn't get those emails. But if you are moving your FITS generation then you are changing FITS supplier, sounds like they used the wrong email template.

Thanks I gave them the option.. move it all if it was easier / faster plus if they do move my FIT I have one less account to worry about although Eon have been exemplary in their FIT payment managementRon-ski said:I left my FITS generation payments with my existing supplier, just moved my exports over (thought it would be quicker), and didn't get those emails.

Actually just signed in to Octopus on web and have this, no email though. This must be because they are not transferring my export over - had the email yesterday confirming that.
