Prepayment meters

Can anyone tell me how much I can put on my electricity key for my prepayment meter. I am with Octopus energy. Before the prices went up I managed to put on over £200 to save me from price rises that were coming. Now my vouchers will not register on my meter . Will The £66 s be stored on my key? I do not use much electricity but I could do with the money for my oil central heating!! Everyone else has the money put into their bank account to spend on any energy. Thank you

  • The meter will not take more than £255 in total. So you could store 3 vouchers on the key.

    Your meter needs to have space for the credit on your key. ie if your meter had £150 on it and your key had £150 the meter won't accept the key until the meter has gone down to about £105.
