    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! 
    Ah, reminds me of this:

    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! 
    Nothing here either you are not alone. I’ve signed up to that DFS link MFB kindly posted
    I have literally just had the WA notification - but still nothing from the app. 
    Octopus are intentionally not sending app notifications to everyone this year, particularly on the short notice “surprise” sessions which they’re apparently only really pushing through social media.

    The lack of email I can understand to a degree but it’s odd that they’re not not giving full support to their own app despite this being an ideal use for Octo-app push notifications.
    Moo…

    The push notice from Octopus finally came through on my whatsapp at 3.28. Not a great deal of time to load up the battery if I hadn't received prior notice from Octo-aid. I'd already been charging since 2.30!

    I only downloaded whatsapp for Octopus and it seems to be the last place (compared to the app, website and this thread) to show a session is available

    Octo-aid has just confirmed another session for tomorrow 5-6pm.  I won't bother turning off the settings on the inverter then.
