Energy Provider ?

[North Cardiff Blue]

If anyone else is thinking of switching to Octopus, then use this link to sign up to Octopus - https://share.octopus.energy/gray-jade-929. We will get £100 to be split between me and whoever uses the link.

I've got a link too, but won't put it up until RichardM has had one.

The offer is genuine and both parties get the £50 paid very quickly.

Octopus are very good, it's saving me a lot and the billing and communication is superb!

Yes, yes, yes, they answer phones, emails and texts too. Absolutely shocking in this day and age and I get a free cuppa in Greggs or Cafe Nero every week, how dare they be so good!

Been with EDF for about 6 years. Bills are fairly easy to understand if you have a basic grasp on how energy bills are calculated.

Been on standard tariff since covid but just this morning I locked for the next 2 years at a tad over the current rate. Cornwall Insight, who have been pretty accurate in predicting which way the price cap is gong to go this last couple of years, are predicting a 10% increase to the cap in October and approx the same in January 2025.

I'm with octopus, i'm paying about 25 - 30% a month more than my usage is, I'm almost £300 in credit on my account and they are still trying to get me increase my DD.

money money money

I'm getting fed up of all these companies, if it's not cash it's information, agree to this, consent to that, followed by targeted adverts, spam emails, surveys, pop ups etc. You can't buy a bulb in Halfords without them wanting your information to email you a receipt. That's followed by a survey, how did we do today?,how was your experience with Josh the new trainee.

I only have to say something in the house and i'm hit by ads for the very same thing. I've just been to London and it knows where I am so all my ads are now what to do in London.

And now more subscriptions, pay a fee so you don't have to have ads, more money money money.

It will implode soon. Corporations are straining every last drop of sweat from us and at some point it will end and a better, less invasive platform will appear. One not driven by meglomaniacs like Musk or control freaks like google.

I use their products, I'm a hypocrite but I enjoy it less and less and use them less and less.

As I become more curmudgeonly I'm starting to make my online experience quality rather than quantity.

I was with Shell, but they offloaded everyone to Octopus automatically.
I guess that rules me out of the £50.

You'll be paying more in the summer as your consumption will be lower, so the theory is that when you get into the winter that credit balance is chipped away at. Still, there's no way they should hold onto £300. Give them a call or threaten them with the ombudsman.

You can take the whole amount back or part and adjust your payments on a monthly basis. They’ve recently asked me to reduce what I was paying.

[SLUDGE FACTORY]

I just pay for energy used every month

I don't like giving direct debit details to these tosspots

I simply don't trust them and in the case of eon I was right , they were hopeless

Just pay on energy used , back dated , every month

Once a month I pay by card on octopus secure site

My mate who is with octopus over a year saves about 30 quid but after my experience with EON I won't be doing direct debit again with any one , apart from council tax

Somewhere on their website or app (I can never find it when I want it) there is a calculator that recommends a direct debit amount based on your annual usage. It works it out so you are paying the same all year rather than less in the summer and more in the winter. This means you will be in credit in the summer.
There are also facilities to change the amount of your direct debit and to request a refund if you are in credit.

Octopus tried to keep mine at £280, I just told them I was changing it to £150 for the summer. I’m still £100 in credit.
It’s ridiculous that we all have to suffer these large charges whilst they reap huge profits. They should be windfall taxed and we get it back thus putting a massive spanner in Putins plan. How many more restaurants will go bust due to their extortionate utility bills?

First payment middle of Sept

I started on British Gas and it took me an hour to get through on the phone to them.

Octopus I’m happy to email knowing they come back asap.

I would happily pay more for them than British Gas, never thought I’d say that a few years ago.

i would advise anyone who is not on a fixed price deal to sign up to one before they dissapear.

Prices are rising fast again, Cornwall insigjht are forecasting a 10% rise this coming autumn, think it could be double that.
