I've just had March's bill and compared to last year with E-on, I'm £264 better off. Dumping the gas was a good decision. :giggle:

Interestingly, I've just just done the maths, and the rate between 11pm and midnight is 5p/kWh, so it looks like the graph is still displaying GMT, but the pricing is BST, making the last hour of the graph the cheap 5p rate.

No idea. I use the things you don't want mentioning. :)

Unfortunately, MG say the Tesla software fix is an "enhancement" rather than a fix. The software is free, but most dealers charge you for the technician's time to install it.

I was on E-on Next Drive last year and have a Pod Point dumb charger. It was all electricity usage on the cheap rate.

Shouldn't it be km?:unsure:
