@jjc I leave for work at 5.30am so not really practical. On days I'm not in the office I can experiment and it seems it needs an ignition cycle to get it charging again. It doesn't need to be unplugged and setting a later departure time results in another slot. I did notice that I get 'unable to control your device' even when it does, so maybe it is sending too many requests for the car.

Hi everyone. I found this post and wondered how you were getting on. I joined IO from Go on Friday with an Octavia iV (also my fourth Octavia, I've had the iV since July 2021). Test charge fine, and a couple of nights close to 100%. During the week it has not charged in most slots and last night not at all (apart from 1kWh at peak rate). Everything off, left to its own devices. I wonder if the car is just rejecting too many requests. It won't let me restart charging from the app either. Operation was unsuccessful etc. Will switch off smart charging for now and try again on non-work days. The car had a belated 12V battery management service campaign update recently. I guess Superb is the same. Never had a single battery charging problem, though. The car has been mostly great apart from the common SOS problem solved ages ago. TIA for any insights!
