Oh, and still no response from BG, not even an automated one. 4 days and counting.

I had an email asking for the final reading. Whilst I was flipping through the menus on the meter, I noticed that BG is now showing as the supplier.

I've had a reply from Good Energy: We've come across an issue with your switch to us. We're really sorry about this. It looks as though you have a switch to another supplier that hasn't been completed yet. This switch needs to be finished before we can move your supply to Good Energy...

Does that mean it's a data salad? :LOL:

Mind you, having experienced some of the MG sortware glitches, I'm not sure I'd want them to update it over the air. If it cocks up in the dealership, at least they can correct it. If it cocks up OTA then you've got a brick sitting on your driveway.

Will do. :) I've also emailed the Ofgem information to Good Energy, explaining that I have asked British Gas to remove the objection so that they can continue.

I have just sent this reply to the BG email. "Hello, Thank you for your email. From the Ofgem website: What happens if your energy supplier goes bust When your new supplier contacts you Ask your new supplier to put you on their cheapest tariff, or shop around and switch if you want to. You...

Mine has been blocked too, although it did give me the oppertunity to look at Good Energy which do a really good EV tariff. They are waiting until the objection is lifted.

Ofgen say as soon as you are contacted by the SOLR you can look for your own provider. Tomato bill was paid this morning, application to Eon Next Drive made soon after. :LOL:

Some manufacturers are dropping their prices to compete with those who get the government subsidy, it may be that.

Die fender.

I've just had a text from British Gas . . . they're taking over from Tomato for me.

Why are only EV drivers being considered for pay per mile? Surely they should scrap fuel duty and every vehicle should pay per mile.

Hmm. Someone's been listening to the oil industry FUD. One battery once made will last for maybe 30 years in a vehicle, and then another 30 years in battery storage. One tank of petrol lasts less than one of your long road trips and once burned, cannot be reused. Crude oil has to be extracted...

I think everyone else who owns an EV thinks you are wrong.

Yep, some stupid people fall for that advertising nonsense, not realising that perpetual motion machines defy the laws of thermodynamics.

Surely a self charging car will have no running costs. :LOL:

Which is what it says in the description; "While it might not be an entirely accurate figure, it gives us a base for comparison – but be aware these tariffs are complicated to compare, so this as a list of who to try, rather than which one is best."

Late to the party. There's a thread on this in the general chat forum.
