Ooh - I wonder which I’d get the most use out of…batter storage or battery storage! 😂😂😂 Good to know people actually read my posts though! As rambling as they are! Haha

Just another plus point for octopus in a looooooong list of good things! I like the fact you can change your hold music! Small things. :)

Yup - it’s all about everyone’s own usage. We’re on go and we’re a low usage family (roughly 6kwh a day without charging). For us - if we load shift our washing machine and dishwasher to the cheap period and keep the rest - we roughly break even on our old British Gas tariff of 22p/kWh (make a...

Yup! Totally agree here! you need to see if it’s worth automating stuff as it can be cheaper to just leave on standby! I had to come up with a ridiculously complicated spreadsheet (it wasn’t that complicated, just a few moving parts), and I used a single wifi power switch that could measure the...

This is true, only a minimal amount of charging required to bring Go to below tge variant, but…only partly true. You can save money on the New Go compared to the variable if you do things a little differently in terms of load shifting too, ie without charging the car (if you charge the car that...

Yeah it’s not a huge amount - but over the course of the year it’s probably just over £15, no real effort as the fuse box is at head height where we keep the coats and shoes - so it’s become part of the daily routine. Doesn’t sound much, but as you say every little helps - this added onto smart...

Ah sounds brilliant! Hope you have a good time! Sounds like a cool place! Basically an eddi will work with the zappi and a Harvi and put your solar where It needs to go, either to the house, batteries, car or to the hot water tank to heat up your hot water!! All for free...

Get those panels and a battery! And an eddi!!! Free electric, and free hot water

So - you have 14 days cooling off period when you switch from your current supplier (I think mine was 17 actually) then I moved to the variable when I was accepted by octopus as a customer - as I’d already pre registered for go, as soon as I’d been accepted they began communicating with my smart...

Yeah - I was British Gas before Octopus - couldn’t be more different! So much better!!!

Not a problem! £50 your way! £50 my way! Saves everyone money on the variable (or go, or go faster etc). Thanks for using that! Basically you’ll be paying a minimum of £50 less with octopus now, compared to the standard variable you were on before with another company as the rates are all the...

Not exactly true - if you are on the variable rate with your current supplier and you switch to octopus with someone’s referral code - you get £50 credit, so you’re basically saving yourself £50 by switching to the octopus variable tarriff (which can be done I’ve asked them as I’ve switched some...
