Re: Was anyone else charged 2.9% by Paypal?
Scott fixed it! Simple mistake and glad it's not a permanent change!

Re: We feel SCAMMED!!
We shut off the breakers to the entire house and that's a guarantee that you get 100% participation!! I don't even mess with unplugging, I shut off the ac and shut it all down.

Re: We feel SCAMMED!!
@Shauna Glicker I'm not exactly sure how solar works...and after 3 years you are definitely OhmHour Veterans...but I can confirm that SCE had been sending incorrect data to ohm at least on my brother's behalf as they were ESTIMATING his usage the Entire Month of July...so the usage I would see on his sce account was the same usage I would see on his ohm account...(and yes it caused him to go over) and sce just chalked it up to their in the middle of upgrading their system...it did eventually fix all but two of his ohm hours...and he is new so his streak was not a major concern...But I too have been a member for 3 years and I get it...the only thing I can say is double check the your sce data is actual data and not estimated data...aslo it does suck to loose your streak but streak bonuses are capped at 20 or 100% bonus now and as we are heading in the the fall payouts won't be has high anyway and there will be time to build you streak back up...I really hope you continue with the program and continue to share the program...you know what it has done for your family and what it can do for others...So I hope you will continue...
Re: OhmConnect Discriminates Against Responsible Consumers and New Parents
Ohm Connect is a scam, and they do not care one bit about their users.
Re: Diamond Status error
I suspect that your status level has changed due to you having fewer than 20 OhmHours in the last 6 months. You can probably confirm by looking at your CSV file
The requirement for GOLD and PLATINUM and DIAMOND is shown here and you'll see the 20 in the last 6 month requirement.

@samklee OhmConnect really need to address this, as this will happen to many of us over the next couple of month if we get 1 or 2 OhmHours a month while we wait for the summer and the frequency of them to improve.

Re: Updates to streaks and status
In the past, as platinum status, I would get double the base points. OC must have changed how they calculate points to cheat us out of more money. I looked up my history, and the status level payout amounts and streak bonus amounts have all been changed to match the new math.

Re: Streaks bonuses are capped at 100% (20 ohm hours). 9/10 last ohm hours have been worthless prize hr
What evidence do you have that many users like Prize OhmHours? Serious question. There is a poll on another forum and 59 out of 59 respondents said they hate them.
Re: Just did my first OhmHour, pretty disappointed with the payout because my forecasted usage is so low
Honestly. If it’s your first time and you got 130 points for a .7kwh reduction did incredibly well. A more typical payout would have been around 70-80 points before streak and status bonuses which are the key to beefing up the payout
With streak capped at 100% and diamond level bonus at 2.5x (150% extra) you’ll make 3.5 times that after 20 streak or 455 points. Enough for two tacos and a soda but only on Taco Tuesday.
