Octopus Go

[KH11]

Just had an email from Octopus Energy regarding the Octopus Go tariff that I am on. The day rate is going down to 29.555 pence per kWh the off peak rate though remains at 9.5 pence per kWh.

Thanks, I have been waiting for a change. Just got an email reducing my non-Go gas tariff, so was hoping they'd change the electricity too.

I got the one for the Gas 3 days ago, wasn’t sure what was happening with the electric as I had only gone on to Octopus Go a fortnight ago although I thought I had read that it was now a variable rate instead of a fixed rate one.

Still over 30p down southView attachment 18476

Is that for Intelligent Octopus?

The previous price on would likely to incur a 5 % VAT

Octopus Intelligent is 7.5p / 38.5p

I have just switched from EOn to Octopus variable tariff. I need to get on Go but I wasn't sure if I first needed to join and then switch to Go.

You join on a standard tariff and the swap straight away to GO or Intelligent if you can.

7.5 / 31.02 for me on IO from 1/7

Seems like it’s just the day rate that’s dropping then for both tariffs.

You also need to take into account the daily standing charge when comparing tariffs.

Yep i did the same switch from Eon to Octopus. I start the switch on Tuesday was switchover by Thursday onto the variable plan. Then had a message today saying it’s been switched to go.

I'm on Go which is fixed until Sep this year, 39.84 daytime and 7.5 overnight. I never use the day rate.
Disappointing to see they are not dropping the overnight rate too

Personally happy with the overnight rate so glad they e dropped the day rate a good bit, everyone's circumstances different though

Indeed, the day rate means nothing to me due to solar and batteries, but the overnight in winter is the key rate for me. So in effect it looks like I will see a rate increase in Sep not a drop !

Don’t worry PristDean, it will all go back up again next Winter.
