    Update , back on snug 

    all looks good up to now 

    they said Edf should not be disputing my final reads as a smart meter so he has escalated it and it should be accepted by Edf 

    just got to wait for my final bill 

    it’s my birthday tomorrow, so no meter or Edf issues will be looked at lol 😝, I’m thinking cake and a rum and dry ginger when I finish work at 6 pm 🕕

    Yep, there should be no issue of meter reads when you have a smart meter. It makes no sense. Always wise to take a photo on the evening of your switch though nonetheless.

    Just discovered this thread :)  Please let us know how you get on. I'm with EDF and about to start looking for my next tariff. Was resigned to staying with EDF - have Econ 7, storage heaters, mainly Quantums - but have only just read about Snug. It seems very complicated to me as I like to know when my cheap hours are so I can go mad with the laundry etc but I am following this with interest!

    How are you liking snug after a week? 

    Are you getting a cheap afternoon hour?  Also is your cheap rate often beginning before midnight?

    Afaik you can always rely on the ??0030 to 0630 core rate for other uses.

    And it would seem the afternoon too, as others were reporting 4-5pm with meter offset on alcs, no offset on 24/7.

    Times are maybe GMT, used to think afternoon was 3-4 for some reason, would need a user to confirm.
