    Who will pay for all this? Oh, I know, the elderly who need their heat to survive. Octopus are a disgrace!!!
    Will no-one think of the elderly!!!

    Just the 1 normal prize on offer but still the extra 50p for the top 20% of savers.

    I've just been across the road to my 'elderly' neighbours, signed them up for the session, set up their inverter to charge and discharge at the appropriate times, and given them the shove they needed to sign up for Tracker from SVT,
    Do they have a battery then, IMHO(often misguided) then flux is better than tracker.

    I'm the only person in the house for once!  So everything's off - TVs, lights, computer, etc.  Shame it's not for a longer session :lol:

    I hope you posted that on a battery operated device, and via network coverage, not connected to plugged in wifi router, or you're banned!

    Thanks @SuzeQStan for posting the table that I'd been looking for.

    I had been close on a few occasions, but unless you hit the very centre pixel of that "explore" icon, nothing happens, so I thought I'd come to a dead end. 

    I'll wait for the 2nd email from ESO in future, as that contains the more relevant link.

    Yes they do, as do we. We both had similar solar setups installed last year although we have an extra battery, and our roofs face different directions.

    I like the simplicity of Tracker for now, and getting them off of SVT was my priority as any move away from that with the rates at the moment will save them some money.

    Couldn’t seem to log in today. Oh well, only seemed to have saved a few £ on every other occasion so no real loss I suppose. And the chance of winning all those points would have been minimal
