    Still been unable to take part in any saving sessions 
    Because Octopus have NEVER emailed me like they claim to do!!
    I've missed it yesterday as well as the last 12 occasions 
    I AM registered for notification and it's not going into spam either 
    Is the opt-in button visible in your online account in the Octoplus section? It's under the rewards stuff?
    Not in my browser.......

    in the saving session box when there is a session it will say "opt me in" and if you  now hit more info that will show you your history of all the sessions you have signed up for

    Sorry - yes it says ENABLED on the REWARDS tab - but still I don't receive any notification
    Saving sessions that I have signed up for - ZERO !


    If I was half as smart as I think I am - I'd be twice as smart as I REALLY am.

    If you see a session mentioned here, log in and the Savings Sessions "More Info" button should become an "Opt Me In" button. No idea about the notifications. I usually read about a session on here before I get an email.

    Where it says more info, it will change to opt in.

    I wonder if at some point you have hit unsubscribe from the emails on saver sessions?

    Try contacting Octopus, as they should be able to see if you have or not.

    Just put my dinner on to cook.

    Yep we had our showers and cooked tea all between 6 and 7, which was a challenge, but hey :p

    which appears from the "challenge" bit to be an attempt to use more power in that hour than would usually be used. 

    I was wondering if they had confused the saving session with the “all you can eat, that gets refunded” sessions Octopus were previously running.
    I've been here way too long to make that mistake. and even those few sessions were "all you can eat over what you'd typically use in that slot"

    If you don't have a battery its just not worth disrupting the family for this anymore, and dubious for those with batteries given the wear an tear on the batteries for the recompense involved.

    Totally agree, this week we have had loads of sun, exporting even now at 1630, gone are the days when I got 19000+ points in one session, max this season has been 1088.

    Am I missing something?  You’re supposed to try and use less electricity than you normally do during the saving sessions.

    The incentive is no longer there ! It now costs us to help fill pockets ;)
