Cape Town AMI Meter Feedback - how does it work (on your rates statement)?

I have a 3ph solar power system that overproduces in summer and got the 3ph AMI meter from the City so I could start feeding back into the grid and save a few bucks.

The new meter is no longer prepaid so I now get my electricity charge on my rates bill in the mail like the old days.

Feed-in was activated not quite a month ago and I've recently received my rates bill showing my consumption, but nothing about feed-in. During this period I sent back to the grid about 50kWh.

Does anyone know how this works? Does the meter just run backwards at a reduced rate and the reading on the meter at the end of the period reflects this?

See below screenies from my rates bill. Electricity is not mentioned anywhere else.
