Do you actually get export history and totals via the Mini? Mine only show live export (as a negative) the export history only appears when they get the real data from the meter.

My mini's gone rogue at homeAnd Greg doesn't understand it
He always said they were as good as gold

'Cause there are no reasons

Sorry for wandering off lyrically, especially as my mini is still working fine (so far).

Email from Octopus today Home Mini Team metering Specialists have advised I delete the APP and carry out another factory reset, I again informed them it was all ok until the reset in June.
To date even after delete the APP and another factory reset it is still flashing blue ?

Finally got an answer from Octopus, they are telling me, it a communication with my meter (SMET1) a new home mini will not fix it, strangely my meter sends them half hour reading plus my IHD communicates with my meter,

That sounds unlikely, given that it was working for weeks/months beforehand? Are Octopus indirectly saying they've broken their system and don't intend to fix it for SMETS1 meters?
Is your meter definitely SMETS1?
