There seem to be some serious issues with the app and website right now. Opt in finally loaded, but everything is sooo slooooooowwwww.

I note they have it as "1 hours" between 17:00 - 18:30.

So the last saving session was on 16th and next tomorrow on 29th - if correctly looking at the calendar, this hopefully means the last saving session energy export is outside the 'last 10 weekday tally' so won't influence the baseline use/export for tomorrow's session....

1.5hrs of export tomorrow could help the grid and provide a nice reward - although unlike on the 17th there's probably not an additional lucky perk of extra following day export due to bright sunshine on refilled batteries overnight.

Days where a session took place are not counted in the baseline, so thankfully even if the sessions are close together they will not influence each other's results.

You might not have enough history with them for usage yet to be able to join but use Twitter to find out why.

I've opted in as I shall be out watching football, but unlike last time I'll be away too long to be able to switch off at the mains and have a quiet read by battery LED lamp like I did last time. So they'll be a bit of base load chuntering along but no cooking or lighting, so a small saving. It would be good to win one of their random spot prizes though!

5-6 million customer maybe 4 million with smart meters with maybe 2 million bothering to opt in? 

Things will be slow

I would imagine the vast majority are still unaware. Email and push notifications are usually pretty slow getting out. I don't know how many have joined the WhatsApp. Maybe the WhatsApp group is more popular than I thought.
