Have just transferred to e-on from British Gas and am getting a smart meter fitted tomorrow.
How long after that can I transfer to the low cost EV tariff?...hopefully straightaway!
Download the EOn app (even better is the Bright app as well) - if you can see your hourly usage your meters are fully functional so you should get onto the EV tariff straight away.
Do it online - it only took a day to change tariff for me 👍
@as400 I thought it might. As it says it can take 24 hours to start populating. It will let you see more up to date usage. Better than the Eon Next app. It's also better for ToU monitoring. @geoffers is well in to it's usage. I'm sure he will give advice.

@as400 - hopefully with new meters you'll be lucky and have one which shows both tariff rates (mine only is capable of storing a single value)
These values are only used for approximate calculations of your usage costs displayed on your IHD - your billing calculations will use the true Next Drive tariff values, so if the meter hasn't got the correct values don't worry.
Bright will also get the tariff values from your meter, so if they're not correct on the meter its cost calculations won't be correct. However Bright does have the facility to override them and insert your own correct dual ToU tariff rate values and timings, which is what I've had to do since Bright only picks up a single tariff value from my meter.
