I have Goldenergy and have the app set up. I am trying to understand how I submit readings to get accurate billing. I have a photo from yesterday of digital meter. In the app there are three things to enter: vazio, ponta and cheia. All are kwH readings. But I have no clue which numbers are which on the meter. Also there are numbers already associated with these but I don't know if they are estimates or if a digital meter equals a smart meter and that Gold is getting remote readings. Can anyone shed some light on this? I just want to be sure I do it right so I don't have to fix it later. Thanks!

I suppose you have it figured out by now. I was scratching my head for a minute over this, so I searched the web for the model name of my contador, site restricted to my electricity provider's site "cx1000-6 s site:edp.pt"

That turned up a page that described how you do it with a later model, but it was close enough. I had to push the button on the front of the contador, until 1.8.1, and then the next two 1.8.2 and 1.8.3 followed in sequence providing the respective terms.

BEST VALUE

STOP!!! If you have been trawling the internet for information. HERE is the only place you need to be to get clear, concise, current and expert information. Oh my gosh, how can I sum up the value of this group. The people, incredibly knowledgeable; resources, beneficial; connections, unforgettable; forums, super friendly and informative; webinars, invaluable. Best investment so far.

Finding and actually participating in ExpatsPortugal has made our decision to move to Portugal attainable. It can be a little daunting without the knowledge or connections and is definitely something I would not like to do alone from the other side of the planet. It’s a diverse group of great and genuinely helpful people. I am a lot more comfortable now, and with the advice from the other members and participants, as well as the businesses listed in the directory, this journey will be a lot smoother. Thanks for having me.

Expats Portugal has helped us with our decision to move to Portugal. Premium membership is a great investment and the discounts are an added bonus. Thank you, Gerry and Astrid for your help and chat. You provided some great snippets of info, pearls of wisdom and also confirmed some of our existing thoughts. It makes moving much less stressful . The forum provides a friendly and supportive environment. A great resource.
