You could try moving it closer to the meters.
You can also check your data is getting sent properly via https://www.octopriceuk.app/tracker you will need to add your post code and customer API key. You can then check your data from the hamburger menu under 'data checker'
It'll look something like this, I do have 3 30min segments of missing data from the 11th but from experience when they do the bill it'll be normal again, but if your data shows as N/A you may have an issue.

They do say it takes days for all the steps to work properly, my elecy was instant but my gas meter took 24hrs before that got commissioned, and it's display changed.

Re: Smart Meter, Yae or Nae?
The hid seems to be on some separate system. The Octopus site gets the data one or two days after and all that is fine but my HID still shows nothing - and yes it it near the meter.

The IHD is irrelevant really you don't need it and all it does is connect to your meters to show the readings, similarly to the Home Mini which I recommend signing up for then you get more info in the Octopus app on your usage.

Re: Smart Meter, Yae or Nae?
With the SVT Cap prices being reduced from 1st July it brings the until price extremely close to the Tracker daily prices so I'm going to have to keep an eye on this.
Does anyone know if Octopus bring out a better Tracker Tariff whether us on an older Tracker are able to switch onto it?

Re: Smart Meter, Yae or Nae?
No idea, but they failed to turn up on Thursday to install mine.
Still waiting for them to fix the fracked up meter readings as well.
Not impressed with Octopus so far.

It's going to get extremely complicated if they haven't fixed the meter readings when they do turnup for the install.
