Electricity costs.

Any news worthy story. Good things to watch at the Cinema, Theatre, on TV or have you read a good book lately?

No.
There is the answer for Alan/AlanD and OGB then.
From other forums, some folk have signed up online and ticked a box saying I have an EV. Others who signed up over the phone its mixed, some were not even asked, some were asked and they replied yes, and some were asked for the Reg no.

So if it were me without an EV, just look in your local area and find an EV, note the reg the model so if your asked for Reg and model name they match. Anyone can do a simple free online check for that but to find the registered keeper is a bit more troublesome and I doubt Octopus do it.

I’ve never heard of any one being asked to prove that have a BEV. I filled in an online form they emailed me a link to, it asked what model BEV I owned and it put “iD4”.
