I was so touched when I recieved my flowers from Octopus. I explained that I was unable to increase my bill due to my Husband waiting for spinal surgery. It was so unexpected to get the flowers through the post.

Five-year problem resolved by Octopus

I've had a five-year problem with a gas meter not working properly. Taken this up with several suppliers with little progress. Octopus Energy, however, took the reigns and ran, and ran with it. Thank you Anna for your persistence in resolving this issue.

Very smooth transfer

Very smooth transfer. The customer service team were exceptionally helpful when I called to find out how the transfer to separate import/export tariffs was proceeding. Good app. Definitely recommend so far.
