Smart tariff service status



What is this page for? 

Smart tariffs are cutting-edge tech, often relying on multiple integrations between our technology (OE Tech or Kraken) and dozens of third parties (car manufacturers, chargers, other smart devices). Bugs can appear and things can break.


This page will, as much as possible, summarise any recent issues that might be useful for customers to know we are investigating.  It will also include our plans for some (but not all) feature releases. A quick note, though: we adapt our plans as we go to stay as efficient as possible, so our priorities often shift.
