    WhatsApp message has just arrived - had already registered but good to know WhatsApp is working as it should...
    And it says you get 200 points just for opting in.
    Is that just if you use Whatspp? I just opted in from the phone app, no reference to 200 points. I seem to remember something similar said about a previous session as well.
    On two of the previous sessions the WhatsApp messages said something to the effect taht you would get a minimum of 100 points of you opted in - i.e. if you earned less than that you'd be bumped up to 100 points. But that hasn't happened for me - although as it only leaves me 10p or so down I haven't got too excited about it.

    Has anybody had their previous points bumped up?

    It mentions it in the WhatsApp alert, but you cannot opt in via WhatsApp, so I would presume it applies to everyone.

    I got a push from octoaid about an hour ago.

    Interestingly for me, my usage stats weren't available for the early part of today, but then Octo-aid had them before they updated in my Octopus app!

  • This is very hard work for the pint of a pint and a half! I made 7.50 in a previous session but despite doing my best with the tech, I have missed all but one session due to not being glued to my phone.  I've now worked out the easiest way for me is to have Whatsapp web with the Octopus channel running in a separate window on my laptop. I'm prepared to try with this, it's interesting as a social experiment, but I wish Octopus did better IT. I still can't use it with my KIA EV because the app doesn't work (it used to but broke just in time for me not to get the Intelligent tariff). 
  • Well, I woke up at 5.10pm and saw the notification so no opting in for me, boo.

    Thanks,  just checked it out but I don't have an apple device so can't use the app. I've joined the Facebook group though in case it has any useful information

    1.92kwh exported. I've just remembered to go and change the settings on the inverter so I don't import/export in the same slots tomorrow!

    My 5th December result is 40 points, so mine haven't been bumped up as promised with the opt-in points.
