SIMPLIFYING WAYS TO SAVE MONEY ON YOUR OCTOPUS ENERGY BILLS – JOIN THE GROWING BAND OF CUSTOMERS DEMANDING MORE FOR THE PLANET AND THEIR POCKET.

I’m Sarah, and as a mum of 3 daughters, I want to save money and do right by the planet. This led me down a rabbit hole of researching tariffs, smart meters, and renewable options.

I’ll give you a helpful insight into what may lie ahead if you switch to Octopus Energy. I have created a helpful guide on Octopus tariffs, Octopus solar and heat pump installations and a general rundown on how to save money whilst trying to be a little greener too.

Feel free to follow me Sarah_Go_Green and join the conversation – I’d love to hear from you!

I’m also featured on the Octopus website and their YouTube channel as a solar customer. I’ve been on BBC News, Radio Wales, published in the Telegraph for owning part of a wind turbine and had a feature in Bloomberg.

Written by: Sarah Chambers.

As an exiting Octopus customer, I am happier than a solar panel on a sunny day.

My website is not managed or owned by Octopus Energy. It is just a website created by, Sarah Go Green, a mum,  home energy geek and a happy Octopus Energy customer.

Octopus knows how to connect with their customers.  They care for the planet in a way that’s both straightforward and surprisingly entertaining.

Octopus Energy has a whole menu of tariff options to pick from, including solar and battery tariffs, to fixed tariffs that beat the October Energy Price Cap rise.

I hope I can make it easier for you to save money and move towards 2025 managing your energy costs whilst contributing to a greener future.

Barbara switched using my link, she is a pensioner. Shortly after switching to Octopus, she sent me a message (via TikTok) asking me if she had done the right thing by taking the Octopus flexible tariff instead of the fixed one.

After an exchange of messages, Barbara decided to take the Octopus fixed rate instead. All it took was a quick phone call to Octopus.

As Barbara switched using my Octopus link we will share £100. She will get £50 credit on her Octopus Energy account and I will get £50 credit too! Thank you Barbara.x

HOW MUCH MONEY HAVE I SAVED THIS YEAR WITH OCTOPUS ENERGY COMPARED TO THE ENERGY PRICE CAP?

Octopus have saved me well over £1000 this year (2024) on my home energy bill. I am an energy geek - like the coupon lady but for energy. This saving has come from an EV tariff called Intelligent Octopus Go for my electricity and the Octopus Tracker tariff for my gas. You don't need any green tech for the Octopus Tracker tariff just a smart meter. Even on Octopus Agile which again requires no green tech just a smart meter I could have saved several hundred pounds compared to the Energy Price Cap. Please read my blog, you can find me on X, TikTok and YouTube for lots of Octopus Energy money saving inspiration. - Sarah Go Green.

These compassionate efforts to help pensioners who have lost their winter fuel allowance are typical of Octopus Energy’s commitment to prioriting the well-being of its customers above all else.

Octopus Energy Contact

I do not work for Octopus Energy. I have been an Octopus customer since 2018. When I joined they were a new energy company that had less than 300,000 customers. Now they have around 6.5 million BUT they haven’t lost that personal touch!

I blog about their tariffs and innovations. I share their passion for renewable energy and enjoy passing on tips to help make home energy cheaper, cleaner, and greener. I am more than happy to chat via email if you drop me a message.

Is it worth switching to Octopus Energy?

Octopus Energy’s standard tariffs have always been cheaper than any other large supplier.

The Octopus 15-month fixed is one of the cheapest fixed rates on the market and is the only fixed tariff recommended by Martin Lewis with zero exit fees.

Octopus don’t stop you from leaving they prefer to make sure you are happy to stay. It’s the reason I have been a customer for over 6 years.

What is the new customer offer right now with Octopus Energy?

The new customer offer on Octopus Energy is a £50 credit when you switch using my 2024 Octopus referral link or referral code tough-deer-484. Click to switch and you will receive your £50 joining credit after you have made your first direct debit payment. (The credit usually takes a few days to appear after your payment is made.)

If you decide to use my 2024 Octopus refer a friend code to share a £100 bonus which is £50 each from Octopus Energy I would be thrilled to bits, thank you in advance.

Switching to Octopus is now faster than ever thanks to the Switch Guarantee. Why pay more for your energy? There’s no M&S version of energy. Your lights will not glow differently but you will get outstanding customer service with Octopus! I give them two thumbs up!

If you were receiving the winter fuel allowance but you have now fallen short of being entitled to the payment you can apply for a discretionary credit from Octopus Energy.

If you need any tips or advice on picking the right tariff,  message me on my social media or blog contact page.  I hope my content has been of help.
