  • Notification of 1.5 hour session tomorrow 15th December 


    From the looks of it, it is another staggered requirement, it looks like Octopus have gone for the 5-6 slot other suppliers may go 5:30 to 6:30

    I am opted in - still didn't get notified by either the app or WA though. All my settings seem to say that I should get the notifications, but it's not happening!

  • Octopus just knocked at the door to say a saving session tonight......only joking it was carrier pigeon.

    Pah - like Octopus would use anything as archaic as a carrier pigeon?! A drone, surely!

  • I woke up a short while ago to find the Octopus app notification already there.  Opted in, and then the WhatsApp notification came through.

    Handy to have a heads-up for tomorrow too.

    I've checked through my Whats App alerts and Octopoints, I should have had one session (29 November) bumped up to 100, only 80 points show.
    Another session did correctly credit an extra 100 points for opting in. 
    I don't think 2p is worth my energy or time chasing though!

    Oh yes, forgot that was the name for them.  Extremely annoyingly, I'm out of the area by under half a mile as the crow flies.
