minus-square@Belazor@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglish8•11 months agoOctopus are now on week 13 out of an estimated 6 weeks to fix my IHD not being able to maintain a connection and constantly rebooting itself. I keep getting updates every 2 weeks saying the engineers are still working remotely on my meter. I know this is unrelated but I saw octopus and well I am somewhat annoyed at this point.

minus-square@Belazor@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglish1•11 months agoI don’t know, but Octopus are no longer receiving smart meter data from me (and vastly overestimated my bill after I was away for a month). I assumed the IHD was receiving data from the meters and pushing it to the account, is that not how it works?
