Uswitch 25 hours free electricity

I was thinking that this looks like the sort of thing they might do on an occasional basis, but whether it's use keeping the app and the permissions in place for that eventuality, or whether as with this time, we'd just be able to reinstall/give new permissions in that instance is tricky to say.

£11.01 for me, very happy as usually with these kinds of schemes we just get pennies.

If they do have free electricity on Christmas Day that's less than a month away so probably worth keeping the app until then.  And if not, oh well, it will have only been under a month keeping it for nothing 🤷

Just checked my app and the Free Electricity on Christmas Day offer is open - limited availability and up to £10, 8am - 4pm.Sign-ups until 21st December - haven't checked the Ts & Cs yet...

Thanks, I've signed up. Terms seem very similar to the 25 hours offer.

Me too.

It asks you to confirm your plan before 24 December. This time when editing the plan the first question it asks is "Are you on an Economy 7 plan?". I am not but the unit rates for the E7 version of my tariff happen to be the same as the E10 version. After some thought I answered yes to that question and picked the closest name to my tariff (my tariff has "Economy 10" in the name and they don't have any of those). That means that unlike when I signed up to the November offer and tried to pick the right tariff, this time the unit rates show correct so I haven't used "My tariff is not shown".

This suggests those on E7 should have their unit rates correct and would therefore get the correct amount of cashback this time.

£19 and change for me, from 75kWh. As uSwitch were underpaying by about 3p/kWh the net cost to me is around £2.25, but that's still a bargain.

The Christmas day offer gives different hours in different places. 'how it works' says 10am to 4pm but the FAQS say 8am to 4pm.

My How It Works says 8-4; I have signed up, so maybe getting a new dialogue (or they've just spotted the mistake and updated it...). You can opt out once signed up, so could be worth checking if it does the same for you...

Mine now says 8am so it must have just been changed 😁 that's much better, we can charge the car for 4 hours before going out.
