I can't get my Octopus account set up unless my can is reporting it's location as the same address that I live at.

The houses near me aren't in a nice line on a road, but a rather higgledy piggledy arrangement. No matter where I stop my car I doesn't show my addess as the location in the app.

Any idea how to force it, or how to get Tesla to add my address to its map?

Press and hold the spot where your car is parked/where your house is on the Tesla's map and then save it as a favorite.

I've done that, but then when you check the location it still shows an address as being in a different road, unless I'm missing a trick?

Hmmm - maybe try clicking a spot slightly in the direction of your house from that address?

I'll have a play tomorrow and see if I can find it, hopefully there will be a spot somewhere that it works
