Reply To: Octopus Energy Thoughts Well my dual fuel (GAS / Electric) deal is coming to and end with British Gas and looking around, Octopus Energy does seem to rate well via Trust Pilot and…

Hi, How is this going? I fixed my energy back in March (individual suppliers for gas/elec) as worked out bit cheaper this way and I’m not likely to want to leave early and pay the exist fees etc.  I signed up to a 2 year fixed deal for both so thankfully something worked in my favour and I’m not paying the higher prices at present.  Renewal is in 2023 so I’ll either be glad I fixed or I’ll find out prices are way more than I’ve been paying :)

Only small concern is that one of my suppliers is a small company so with the news of several going bust, I’ll have to wait and see how this goes.  Advantage of small company is that get some sort of discount on the energy they provide or some tax break etc?  Mine has less than 20k customers and so far, no reports or signs of them going under so hopefully they can ride this out fingers crossed.  Other supplier is a large company so don’t see them going anywhere.

I been with the small supplier since 2017 and always do a 2 year fixed and so far I’ve had no issues with them.  They even allow me to submit a reading which is lower than what the estimated the previous month(s) and they simply add any money they owe me to credit so so far no issues at all, works quiet well.  Bill comes via email etc so all good :)

Been with elec company just this year as switched suppliers as previous one wanted too much, so far so good although admittedly only been few months.
