Just had an email from Octopus Energy as my Go tariff apparently ends on the 25th. It looks like we're going from 13p pk and 5p o/p to 26p all round! Anyone else had this email? I know a lot of people are on Go for that sweet, sweet 5p/unit rate but it looks like it's finished.

Yeah it wasn't clear at all from the link they sent me. Best way to get through right now is to use Twitter chat since they're inundated at the moment.

Octopus energy sell their electricity on the basis that is 100% renewable. Therefore their electricity rates shouldn't rise because none of it is generated by a gas powered power station.
If anything is going to rise, it will be their gas prices.

I see from posts from our friends in the US that FordPass app version 3 .31 has been released over the pond. Typical. We haven't even got 3.30 yet. I'm getting impatient. I want to see what stops working next time.

It's not gone yet as I applied for it on Friday although the KWH rate is 23.77 pence with a standing charge of 18.01 per day. Still 5 pence per kwh between 00.30 and 04.30. I wonder if the kwh rate varies depending on where you live?

Octopus looked into it more deeply and it turns out I was renewed a few days previously for another year, so I have 13p/5p until September '22.

The day rate for anyone else/new is apparently changing to 26p though.
