As normal this morning ,I looked for last weeks consumption figs. on Bright app. Only partial records for Thursday , nothing for Friday and only a few hours shown for Saturday and again nothing for Sunday.
Checked on Octopus site for usage and all the days seem to be complete - anyone else looked at Bright app today ??

    Yep, same here. partial data from Wednesday onwards. It always seems to go wrong on the weekends and then get fixed on the Monday so I expect it to be sorted by tomorrow.
  • Mine is showing nothing for electric since Thursday. I did the cross-check against loop when I first spotted the Bright issue over the weekend, and Loop have the data up almost to date so clearly it is just a Bright issue.

    Has anyone found Bright filling in the missing data? I still see only two 1/2 hour readings for last Friday, one for Saturday, and around half of Sunday also missing.

    I am with EDF and their Energy Hub is the usual 1 or 2 days behind,

    Bright app is up to date with electricity usage.

    Last gas update in the Bright app is from Wednesday 1st November.

    I'm missing all gas data in Bright from 18-19 October, but so is Octopus.

    Then it looks OK, up to and including 07 November.

    Electric has populated up to 0900 today, 10 Nov (time now is now 1033).

    Edited to add today's date.

    I had electricians in working last week, and feared they had affected my smart meter. 

    All caught up now though, so clearly it was just a coincidence.
