    Did you initiate the transfer yourself, did your previous supplier go bust, erroneous transfer?

    You do not need to be able to put the reading in, but make sure you have a picture of the meter read for reference in case there are any issues. Going forward billing should be based on smart meter reads.
    and final thing the octopus app always showed me live usage will the edf app also show me that 
    also i have given octopus my final meter readings
    When you say live usage, do you mean via the Octopus Home Mini? If so then no, EDF will not. EDF will at best show half hour reads, but they are often delayed by at least a day.
