      Yep, Octopus Agile. So far I’ve been paid about £0.30 for my usage this morning. Reckless usage, I’ve got everything turned on.

          If it makes you feel any better, some devices in the house are being used for good, like keeping some baby rabbits warm.

            I’d charge that car!

            What sort of prices are you getting in the middle of the night?

            How high do the prices go at teatime?

          It might sound like wasting power but the reason the price is negative is that there is too much production or to put it another way not enough load on the grid. OP is doing exactly what the grid wants, though I think I would try and use it for productive means if I could.

    Octopus 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.

      If it’s just the IHD with problems, don’t worry about it. Mine is in a drawer somewhere. It doesn’t do anything.
