Octopus was not my choice to move to i wanted to move to one of the bigger suppliers,

in a nutshell

20.49 for electricity
4.13 for gas

In a nutshell - exactly what i predicted. Rip off! OCT can jog on

I suggest we all move to another supplier as these prices are a joke. What more of a joke - these are flex tariffs and not fixed so will get even higher


We all need to move ASAP because we are getting charged daily with these ridiculous prices


Ok so i just went to the CA website for a comparison and OCT are offering a flexible tarrif which is cheaper then the one they have offered us!

It is 18p kwh elect
3.4 - gas

Can someone please explain this to me?

Are we getting conned? 


Is there any other good comparisons website to look at?

We are now in dangerous terrorist folks. The deals are getting snapped up and we are here getting the high tariffs

I thought Octopus Energy are  the 6th largest supplier, behind in no particular order BG. E.on, EDF, SP, OVO Brands

Is this correct. It would mean they have more customers than two of EDF, E.ON, SSE/OVO and Scottish Power.

Wrong again. All SoLR tariffs are approved by Ofgem and fixed for 6 months. The fix lapses when the supplier loses its SoLR status after 6 months. I wish you well trying to find a cheaper tariff. Most suppliers have withdrawn from price comparison websites because of market volatity.

Supplier of Last Resort. The supplier appointed by Ofgem to take on the customers of a failed supplier.

Be sure to let everyone know the details of the much better deal you find for yourself...
