    Thank you for the reminder!  I fell at the hurdle of finding bank details yesterday and had totally forgotten about it today.

    Payment runs are on the 4th and 17th "and could take up to a week to process", so well worth requesting ASAP.

    Thanks for the reminder. If it takes time to process I expect to have missed the 4th, but it's nice to get a free £25 before Christmas 👍

     I was going to leave it till it built up. Is that not allowed? Should I withdraw it now?

    The 25 hours free electricity was just for November. Mine was all available for withdrawal when I logged in yesterday so I've withdrawn it. If you've opted in to other ways of earning, you might be more relaxed about it, but I'd much rather have the money in my bank account.

    Just under £6 for me - but as it was literally all earned doing things that I would have been doing anyway, at pretty much the times I would have been doing them, I'm happy enough with that. Withdrawal requested this morning.

    Is there anything worthwhile keeping the app for once I have received my earnings?  
    I started off slow due to my solar, but picked up in the last 2 weeks and finished up with £14.06 so quite happy with that.

    It does show that last year they did free electricity on Christmas Day - don't know if that was one particular supplier?  I don't mind them harvesting my usage if they occasionally offer some reward ...
