    I won a quid squid on my very first spin but buggerall since, Octopoints excepted. Two years with Octopus in April, so still time for a winning streak!

    Been with them for 4yrs. Won £1.
    The LIDL app is much better. Always getting money off or a free item. Just wish they provided energy.

    I have won 2 x £1 in consectutive weeks and nothing else since I joined.
     I thought maybe  they were giving me a pat on the back for having £700 credit as they are making more than that out of me at 5.2% intestest rate they are getting a lot more than that in the 14 months I ve been with Octopus which is £3 a month before tax on £700.
    Think I will go on a variable direct debit !

    More fool you leaving the interest to Octopus not really money saving...definitely good variable direct debit plan👍

    Unless they convert it into physical cash, someone's making money out of it.
