Hadn't realised there was limited availability for the slots. Can see this becoming an issue if we're all saving them up for cloudy weekend days at the end of October…..
I've set my inverter to export from 18.15-18.45. Will see how this works out.

Deep seated hatred of Scottish Power and all who sail in her - would love to see Ofgem grow a pair and actually do something about it.0 -
We had a minor boo-boo this evening when Mrs QrizB plugged her car in during the saving session and it started charging 🤣but we cancelled it quickly so hopefully we've still managed to save something!

As I said before , they paid 101 points on 18/08 and they bid £168 as today . But then they weren't giving you free hours on Sundays , they have to pay for those somehow ignoring the fact they take 20% for their admin anyhow.
