Hmm. not sure what that is all about except I seem to have been lucky by doing nothing and allowing Amazon to transfer things.sigpic

The skill Homwseer devUK was imported by Amazon when they migrted The account. If I do not wish it I can remove it but apparently cannot restore that perticular skill as it is not available in the UK yet.

Try calling Amazon. I just did and they said they will send a request to there developers to try and get it in the uk. I would guess the more requests they get the better.

I cant see the official skill in the portal, but I followed the instructions for the workaround and it worked fine.
Initial impressions are pretty poor really - It doesn't seem to solve the main problem of having to know the names of devices and having to speak really clearly several times.
Even a custom test event that listens for the phrase 'heated floor' was struggling to work first or even third time. The only WAF i got was in the form of entertainment - i.e she just laughed as I kept repeating myself to alexa.
Will play around with it and read some threads to see if i can improve it.
The echo itself is pretty good - i like using as a radio!
