I won't be specific with the exact dates in the months, incase they take my beloved £50 back.  🥴

But I left in April 2024.  I received the final bill in mid November 2024.  Then I rejoined in March 2025.

Because it was less than 1 year I didn't think I'd qualify, so I didn't put a referral code in at first but at the bottom of my Octopus profile it said if I had a referral code then I could still enter it.  So while Octopus were still in the process of switching me over I decided to enter a referral code but I had little expectation. 

However when they emailed that switchover was now complete, to my surprise 3 days later I received the £50 referral.

Of course me receiving the £50 referral within a year of leaving was probably just a one off fluke.

When you moved back, was it the same e-mail address & Octopus account number?

Yes when I rejoined I just logged back into my old account.  So both email and Octopus account number were the same as before.

I would imagine they want to forget about the slowness of the final bill (mine almost 7 months) and they go from when you joined your new energy provider.

Here is my final bill.  Notice I had only joined Octopus in Jan 2024.  I had left them in April 2024.  I got my final bill in Nov 2024:

When I rejoined in March 2025 they sent a bill to cover the first few days and you can see my £50 referral award:

Later edit:   Maybe I had received that March 2025 £50 referral award because it had been over a year since I had previously received a referral award?

Thanks for the tip-off. I was going to top the car up, very soon, whilst the price is below my threshold of 9p/kWh (2p/mile) but I would be "wasting" the meagre amount of solar I'm generating. I'll leave if for an overnight charge and gather in my 15ps for the solar in the meantime.

It is rather annoying that a thread about the Octopus Agile tariff is thrown totally off-topic with all this irrelevant stuff to wade through. I am here for posts about the Octopus Agile tariff and related issues, nothing else. Grrr! Rant over.

Thanks for re-quoting, images and all

That does in with the Octopus "greener days/nights" forecast:

"Greener" generally means a surplus of wind energy and lower Agile prices.

Last couple of negative sessions I had the oil radiators on but I won't be doing that now.  Will use the tumble dryer, though, as it's given rain for most of the week

Sorry, should have deleted all that, couldn't be bothered! Anyway, back on topic, tomorrow looks like the best day EVER, 16 hours of negative and even the peak doesn't get above 20p 😊

Tomorrow's national average pricing graph from Energy Stats is quite something:
