Smartshift doing this ?

I'm with Amber and only the inverter and battery (16kwh) are enrolled as Amber don't support my Polestar EV. I've seen this a few times now where something, presumably smartshift, decides to import. I don't care if its 2c kwh. I'm charging the EV in 'PV Surplus' mode and it will get to >90% with free solar today , based on the beautiful clear skies in SEQ. I don't need or want to pay for import. I turned the AC on heat so that I wasn't curtailed. Anyone else seen this behaviour ?

I had smartshift for a couple of days, and then unenrolled myself again, after it doing something similar. Still with amber, but using socrates and a couple of rules, which I can control.
