Things of Note
So after months I am finally making progress trying to stop @O2 debt collectors taking me to court for a debt for a phone SIM I never received. This is a painful listen but once you do you'll see why I will never ever use O2 again. #weeknoteshttps://t.co/u3iGkoi5Vh

So we've got an LDR on the smart meter measuring granular usage locally and we're comparing that with the half hourly historical data from @OctopusEnergy. Looks good. Next we need to bring in the tariffs to work out cost of Agile versus the standard tariff #weeknotespic.twitter.com/oCuzaRyfQ5
So apparently on Octopus Flexible I would be paying £220/year for the privilege of being able to use electricity BEFORE I actually use any electricity #weeknotes

Boost Membership – April Start
We’re very late this time, so let’s get boosting quickly!
If you already know what you’re doing then head over here to apply otherwise read on for more information about Boost membership.
The DoES Liverpool Boost Membership was introduced to celebrate the 10th anniversary of DoES Liverpool – the amazing coworking and shared workshop space in the Fabric District of Liverpool. Boost membership gives two people the opportunity to use the space free of charge for six months either with an allocated desk or by having 24-hour access to the workshop.
As things continue to be difficult for people due to inflation, fuel prices and all the economic woes we’re dealing with at the moment we thought it would be worth pointing out that boost membership is open to anyone, even existing paying members. If 6 months free membership would help you out at the moment then feel free to apply, of course if you’re not already a paying member you are still welcome to apply.
Applications are open until 11:59pm on Sunday 17th March 2024, any applications received after this point will not be considered. We will endeavour to announce the winners as soon as possible afterwards.
