Moved to Outfox Feb Fix V2 from Octopus Flexible. When will my electricity connect?

The gas seems to have connected online, but the electricity still hasn't.
Is it because I have a SMET2 reader?

    Since the gas meter connects via the comms hub built in to the electricity meter, it should be working as well.

    Why is it not showing up then? Confused.

    The comms hub is not 'built-in' to the ESME it will often sit on top of it and usually takes its power supply from there, but for data the ESME has to join the wireless HAN just like the GSME.
