Anyone else doing it this year?

We've not been offered the opportunity. We're with Scottish Power. There are rumours that they might do a scheme whereby a reduction in use might be rewarded by an E voucher. It didn't inspire me much.

My Mrs signed up for it yesterday.
RE: Energy Shift - Veggie - 03-12-2023
I hit my target!!
"You reduced your energy usage by 59% so we’ll credit your account with £2.72"
I did it again on 1st December - Reduce by 20% between 4.30 & 6pm. haven' had my results for that event yet.
How did you do, Danny?
RE: Energy Shift - Broadway - 04-12-2023
Not sure Veggie, will ask the boss
RE: Energy Shift - Broadway - 05-12-2023
Apparently we reached our target, saved 53%, credited 66p ?!
RE: Energy Shift - Veggie - 05-12-2023
That's not very generous! Who is your supplier? I'm with EON-Next.
RE: Energy Shift - Broadway - 05-12-2023
We are also with EON-Next

The EON community page has a lot of complaints about the payouts. Some have reduced by 86% and been told they haven't reached their target so get nothing! EON are supposed to be looking at the figures again. Not sure it'll help you though.
There's another Energy shift tonight - mine is to reduce by 20% between 5.30 & 6.30.
RE: Energy Shift - Broadway - 05-12-2023
Thanks Veggie will take a look

You reduced your energy usage by 69% so we’ll credit your account with £4.31.
(Sorry Danny.)
