The agent that dealt with me was great
The agent that dealt with me was great. He explained everything to me so I understood what the different tariffs were and how they worked. I feel happy to be with Octopus Energy. This is my first time using this energy supplier and my agent helped me feel at ease and very informed.

Beware the Octopus Energy App
Beware the Octopus Energy App. I installed this then under the Devices tab I added EcoFlow. The EcoFlow App then started showing 'In API call' at erratic times and power was being taken from my batteries and sent to the grid.
A while later 'in API call' my batteries started being charged from the grid, probably at a high rate. Normally my batteries are charge by solar, NEVER from the grid and NEVER discharge to the grid.
There was no way to control this 'in API mode', according to chats on one of the EcoFlow Facebook Club this is a problem and people had, in the past, only found out when they had excessive electric bills.
So, be warned, DO NOT add EcoFlow devices in the app. I am awaiting a response from Octopus.

Deowarne dealt with my problem very quickly and efficiently - sending me a revised statement almost immediately. I don’t think that it could have been dealt with any better - Thanks
The call was answered quickly
The call was answered quickly and the agent was cheery, helpful and polite.
Very clear website
Very clear website, easy to understand with one minor issue that when I was asked to send a photo of the export reading there was no link or email address shown.
Solar Panels
Ordered solar panels. Installation fantastic , however, trying to get hold of handler was near impossible. Mis lead about export tariff and complaints were never reviewed. Very disappointed in customer service and lack of transparency.
I think it a progressive outcome Thank you for sending this through
Thank you for sending this through. The figures look reasonable — I’m happy to proceed with this fixed tariff. Please could you confirm:
•The exact exit fee amount?
•That I have a 14-day cooling-off period?
•And please post the full written agreement to my address?
Once I have those details I can confirm everything.
Thank you,
Denzel.
