    SJMALBA – or any else – Where is the Our Tariffs page?
    Our Tariffs is on Octopus's website:
    I think you'll need to apply via MSE Cheap Energy Club. No harm in phoning them to ask, though.

    @QrizB Thanks, Phoned Octopus earlier and they said I'd need to apply via MSE website. Tried to apply there but can't find it. Followed link in email. logged in, then was sent to general tariff option results and its nowhere to be seen!

    Others (looking for the BG tariff) have reported success by telling MSE CEC that you're with a different "current supplier". It's then given them the tariff they're looking for. Does this work for you and let you find the Octopus tariff?

    Hi all,

    I am due to either renew or switch my tariff. I am currently with Octopus on their Octopus 12M Fixed October 2024 v2 tariff.

    I am on a day/night tariff, but have asked for a single-rate option as it seems that I am actually wasting money on the day/night one.

    The quote that Octopus have offered to me was under tariff code OE-FIX-12M-25-09-27 with the following rates:

    Electricity
    25.75 p per kWh
    50.20 p per day standing charge

    Gas
    5.88 p per kWh
    33.22 p per day standing charge

    However, when looking at all current rates on the Octopus page, I stumbled upon this tariff which wasn't there a couple of days ago:

    Money Saving Octopus 10M Fixed September 2025 v1

    Description states "Get peace of mind by fixing your rates with this MSE exclusive tariff. This tariff has an exit fee of £25 per fuel."

    Electricity
    24.88 p per kWh
    50.20 p per day standing charge

    Gas
    5.32 p per kWh
    33.22 p per day standing charge

    This is cheaper that what I am being offered, but I am unable to find this tariff via the Cheap Energy Club search or anything similar.

    Am I missing something blatantly obvious? Thanks in advance
    Yes, you are missing alternatives to Octopus. Had the same tariff and just moved to Outfox. Loyalty doesn't pay.   
    It's paying me quite nicely - I averaged under 15p/kWh for electricity last month on octopus! :wink:

    Have you been able to fix your Gas?

    Like you I'm also on Agile for Electricity, but it's not so easy to shift gas usage off peak, what with winter fast approaching!
