I was just wondering if anyone has heard from Octopus that was with Shell? I wanted to know if Octopus are offering an incentive to existing Shell customers?
I have a friend that is with Octopus, so I could do the Octopus referral, but if Octopus are offering an incentive to existing shell customers, might I be better waiting for that?

Many Thanks,
Steve

    Move fast and get the referral. I can't imagine those that get moved over automatically will get anything extra.

    Get a referral code and move to Octopus asap for your referral bonus. Loophole will close soon.

    OK, I've started the switch, it's not easy to find the serial numbers on the meter and I can't see it on my bill, I've sent them a photo, so they can sort it out :-)
    Did you know, certain areas get free electricity from Octopus, it's something that you have to sign up for     https://octopus.energy/power-ups/

    Yup, had quite a lot of free electric through Octopus due to the Power Ups.

    Well, I was correct, for some reason my Gas meter wasn't in the Database? Not sure why. I eventually found it on my bill, when you know where to look, it's simple, I thought that it was that wierd box to the side S and a load of other boxes and numbers, but when i look at my bill properly, it's obvious, in each section, so Electricity and the Gas had my meter number and it tied up with what I was putting in, but it wasn't in the database, I've asked them to enter it into the database.
    Tried to submit a meter reading Gas was fine, didn't like the Electricity reading, so I sent them another email, hopefully were get there soon!
