Octopus Energy
Can someone who is a bit more au fait than me, kindly help? I am currently with Utilita Energy after I switched from E.ON Next whose Customer Services were totally abysmal.

7 year Energy bill dispute, bill keeps increasing - any advice?
Require guidance dealing with a quite long-standing dispute between my parents and an energy supplier.

Am I really eligible for this
My energy company recently credited me with £150 Warm Home Discount, my concern is whether this is some sort of mistake that may be clawed back later leaving me in debt.

Increasing Direct Debit
I've just got off the phone with my energy company after getting an email saying they were increasing my direct debit. I currently pay £240 a month, and they wanted to increase it to £270 because my account "wouldn't be in credit by the end of March".

Old Dimplex radiators not working- fix or replace?
We moved into our electric-only house a few years ago, the Dimplex storage heater is downstairs and works fine. Upstairs our 3 bedrooms have little Dimplex heaters on the walls (pics), and after a year in the house they stopped working properly- they only worked when they were set at 5 or above, and instead of looking into…

Best option for EV tariff
Hello, We're with Octopus and we had a fixed tariff until December 2025. Commuting to a new job pushed me to buy an electric car so I had to switch the Electricity tariff to Intelligent Octopus Go. This comes with a price because we have to pay more during the day and can't get another fixed tariff. What would be the best…

Each month the bill reduced our accumulated credit and now the November bill is about £50 more than the remaining…

Big Community Switch
Hi all! I've just had my quote from the Big Community Switch programme and for the first time it is quite a bit cheaper than my existing tariff with Octopus.

EDF in credit but putting up DD
I haven’t got a smart meter but I do meter readings at the end of every month. After the last bill at the end of October I’m still £171 in credit which to me seems quite a lot of money still to carry over yet to winter. I’ve had an email to say today that they are putting up DD which is normally £94 to £104. I know that…
