    Is this for a business?
  • My brother was having the same trouble. He wanted to move to Octopus but they "weren't accepting new customers" because they're all the same price. I referred him and they accepted with us both getting a £50 bonus too!

    Gerry1 not for a business. For residential. Although pozitive energy are only business’s but for some reason the property developers who done my house up made them the supplier   And their rates are an actual joke  £1.50 a day standing charge 


    thanks zaralocke will look into  octopus   How long ago was this ?

    That's quite cheap actually for business energy, out of contract.  Could have been worse.
