    Wow, I've received 200 bonus points but I don't know why; it says 'Points awarded for an a…' but I can't find the rest of that sentence anywhere.  On the website statement of Octopoints it just says bonus points. 

    [The only potential savings session thing it could be is if they topped up the last one to 200 points, but the info didn't say anything about that.  It's certainly not a bonus for being in the top any % or opting in for all of them because twice we've saved nothing and we missed one session altogether.]
    The rest of the sentence says 'for an ad hoc reason'.
    Thank you!  So … Christmas bonus? :lol: 
    (it can't have been for opting into the session on the 12th as speculated on the savings sessions thread, as that's the one we missed)

  • Not sure if it's been mentioned by anyone yet, but while checking my Octoplus page this morning I happened across a few new offers they've added - Most notably a free Greggs hot drink each week just for being signed up to Octoplus! No Octopoints spending required. I must say that's an unexpected but certainly most welcome addition to the scheme.

    If you go to your My Account page there should be a great big Octoplus sign-up banner at the top.

    For others, it's only availble through their webiste, you can't get this via the app.

    Thanks but no I don't have that, looking at the FAQ I think the smart meter not sending half hour readings is the issue. Alas maybe the program will still be running in 2025....
