penguin42 | anyone else on Symbio energy? | 13:04 |
---|---|---|
daftykins | afternoon all | 13:08 |
daftykins | that an electric supplier up north? | 13:08 |
penguin42 | yeh | 13:14 |
penguin42 | there reading sybmission page seems to have 404'd; there's an OFCOM final notice for financials due next week | 13:15 |
penguin42 | s/ofcom/ofgem/ | 13:15 |
daftykins | ooh so they might be in hot water? | 13:15 |
penguin42 | wouldn't surprise me; I've got a history of killing energy suppliers - but normally a few months after I've finished with them :-) | 13:17 |
daftykins | hehe | 13:18 |
zxmpi | if an energy company can't keep the lights on... :-P | 13:21 |
penguin42 | https://www.ofgem.gov.uk/publications/symbio-energy-final-order I guess we find out in a week if they submit the financial data | 13:22 |
webpigeon[m] | Penguin42: https://symbioenergy.co.uk/ loads here | 17:42 |
webpigeon[m] | oh, reading page | 17:43 |
webpigeon[m] | ignore me | 17:43 |
penguin42 | webpigeon[m]: It was falling over after trying to get to the submit reading and having logge din | 17:43 |
webpigeon[m] | ah, probably spent all the server money on the slightly askew marquees on the homepage xD | 17:44 |
penguin42 | ah, actually they've fixed it | 17:44 |
webpigeon[m] | bug report over telegram/irc strike again? o.o | 17:45 |
penguin42 | webpigeon[m]: It's probably the only way with them; their phone lines are almost impossible to get through and they don't answer email for months | 17:46 |
webpigeon[m] | at least they have a phone line, mine doesn't even have that. Makes you play choose your own adventure with the helpbot until it gives up and lets you chat to a human via mobile chat | 17:50 |
penguin42 | which is that? | 17:55 |
zxmpi | it's a modern text adventure game :-) | 17:59 |
webpigeon[m] | pure planet | 17:59 |
zxmpi | worthy of infocomm | 17:59 |
webpigeon[m] | zxmpi: it's dark, you are likely to be eaten by a grue. State your issue succinctly so I know what I can help with. | 18:00 |
penguin42 | webpigeon[m]: I'm somewhat skeptical of anything that claims to be 100% carbon free; our wind generation is way too random for that | 18:01 |
zxmpi | inventory | 18:01 |
webpigeon[m] | meh, I live in cornwall :P | 18:01 |
webpigeon[m] | zxmpi: 1 slightly screwed up letter demanding a meter reading, even though you have a smart meter, a half-finished cup of cold coffee | 18:02 |
zxmpi | north | 18:02 |
webpigeon[m] | zxmpi: Sorry - our support representatives are too busy to help with, "north", please wait for 280 years until the next available operator is available | 18:04 |
webpigeon[m] | penguin42: yeah - there some something very cryptic about something involving shell or something recently. | 18:04 |
webpigeon[m] | I never did a response to my, "can I use your bot/app as an example of bad UI/UX in my HCI lecture" question :( | 18:05 |
zxmpi | how big is their 'app'? | 18:06 |
zxmpi | oops. | 18:07 |
zxmpi | examine app :-) | 18:07 |
webpigeon[m] | 17MiB not including user data | 18:07 |
zxmpi | madness | 18:07 |
webpigeon[m] | yeah, it's not a native app - it's the same as the one you can dig out of their website if you click the right link sequence there | 18:08 |
zxmpi | i know that one... 'Hold R on controller 1, turn on and release R at the title screen. During game pause the game and press B, Up, B, A.' | 18:09 |
webpigeon[m] | 😛 | 18:09 |
zxmpi | god mode in doom :-P | 18:10 |
webpigeon[m] | I think their bot's cheat code was something like, "we didn't install the meter, so it's not our problem" | 18:11 |
zxmpi | yes had same problem here where they came out and installed 1 smart meter. and left the 2nd meter alone. then came out and wondered why they couldn't read the 2 meters | 18:14 |
webpigeon[m] | :P | 18:14 |
zxmpi | then sent a new install guy who replaced the old meter and the new meter as it wasn't installed properly | 18:14 |
zxmpi | right time to have a wander away from keyboard o/ | 18:15 |
webpigeon[m] | my smart meter was installed before I moved in, it's just apparently not that smart XD | 18:16 |
daftykins | enjoy \o | 18:16 |
webpigeon[m] | have a good wonder | 18:16 |
