Hi All
Just had first bill through from EDF since purchased I3 and was a bit shocked to say the least that they wanted to increase monthly DD by 71% (£50) to cover new usage and top next 6 months as current DD payments over last 6 months do not cover actual usage.
I think I've read before that issues with off peak charging? (might be wrong) I am charging car at home about 85 to 90% of the time with off peak (I have economy 7 so 5.3p unit off peak vs 15p peak) + I have tracking my usage and assumed cost (clearly incorrectly) which is completely at odds with level of increase from EDF.
Looking at bill and comparing last bill there is massive increase in day unit usage but very small usage in night which leads me to believe when I plug and set off peak between hours I know it to be, then this has not be actually case (I do roughly check 50% of the time that the car is charging when it should be EG off peak through the app)
I have Rolec charger (I believe the story of issues with off peak was only for the BMW wallbox?)....any guidance/advice/insight? I've sent my questions/queries to EDF but sure they wash their hands off it....probably need to get back in charge with installer?
cheers for any support
