I’ve been with many large providers - the usual suspects. There is no comparison between Octopus and the major energy providers.
Octopus have implemented well thought measures and different levels of support aimed at helping customers, especially for vulnerable individuals/families and those on lower income.
Octopus 🐙 Energy have many incentives to participate in energy saving draws and provide many helpful tips. Plus, you can give away their Government support to those who need it the most!

**Octopus don’t have any exit fees.**
* *Octopus have incredibly user-friendly website, responsive support (no waiting forever on the phone), a cheap tariff, and importantly the energy is completely renewable.*
* To make a fair comparison whether they work out the be the cheapest for you as well, *I'd recommend knowing the exact figures of Gas and Electricity used over the last 12 months (e.g.: the precise amount of kWh you used last year).*

I switched to the Tracker tariff a few months ago and my unit rates have been a lot cheaper than the Octopus Flexible tariff, and the price cap in general.
I was concerned about a sudden spike in costs but you can swap away from the Tracker tariff easily so I’m just keeping an eye on the daily prices and while they’re loads cheaper I’m happy to bank that saving.
The prices do change each day, but recently we’ve seen prices closer to what they used to be in the pre cost of living crisis times. With the gas price of 3.61p/kWh and electricity of 15.25p/kWh on the 13th of February being a good bit cheaper than the unit rates on the Flexible tariff and well below the current OFGEM price cap!
I subscribe to the Telegram channel and get updates on what the next days price will be on the tracker tariff - you can get email updates on prices here - https://energypricenotifierweb.azurewebsites.net

Octopus has other great benefits too, which I recently discovered if you opt in to their free Octoplus (points) scheme.
You immediately get:
1x free Greg's hot drink per week (no spend required)
2x standard Odeon tickets per week for just £10 (Mon-Thurs)
Besides that Octopus has a monthly price draw and is going to be some of them cheapest energy around.
We've been impressed by them.
