I'm new to Germany, and the electricity system here is very different from what I'm used to back home. Tim helped me navigate through all that and helped me sign a contract with Octopus. I'm very cl... See more

I used to change my provider every year... Until I started using Octopus. Great service and website! And they offer fair prices without +30% on the second year... I can only recommend them

I discovered them at Neuss RheinPark…

I discovered them at Neuss RheinPark Center. Chris was very helpful, patiently explaining why I should choose their service and answering all my questions with clear references. The process of switching from my previous provider was smooth and hassle-free.

Dear Octopus Energy Team

Dear Octopus Energy Team, hi!

I have a problem, unfortunately. Can you please help me? My customer number is A-9425B792

Just a few hours ago today, I signed up with you exactly, and my decision was made on two factors:

1. There was a link from a friend with a discount, it said a 100 eur discount to me, and after it changed to 50 eur, that is sad, but ok, wherever,
2. The most important was the price, it was 33 eur per Month (on check24, on your website, everywhere it was specifically 33 eur per Month)

So was it 41 Eur now? I have followed the link AGAIN, placed all the info, and it says AGAIN 33 Eur, not 41 Eur (please see the screenshot attached)

I really appreciate any help you can provide,

Have a great day, and hope to hear from you soon

Hi Ekatarina,

I’m Dennis from the review team at Octopus Energy. Thank you for giving us direct feedback on your sign-up – it is extremely important to me and Octopus Energy that every piece of feedback is heard and that we help you as quickly as possible.

I’m sorry to hear that you’ve experienced some issues regarding the price details and the discount at the start of your journey with us. I’ve taken a look at your account and saw that a colleague has already been working on it today to look into the difference between the 33 € and 41 €.

Unfortunately, I wasn't able to reach you by phone earlier, but I left a message on your voicemail and sent you an email as well.

I really hope to hear from you so we can have a quick chat. If you could give me 5 minutes of your time to talk everything through, I’d be very grateful.

Just let me know by replying to my message when the best time is to reach you.

Thanks a lot and best regards,
Dennis

Not what I hoped

Whilst they are generally very friendly I find the fact that they don't bill monthly or even every two months is something appalling. And to say that this is the way things are done in Germany is a lazy fallback position. They have the technology so they could bill if they wanted to. So whilst they charge ok prices the fact that electricity still costs more in Germany than in other countries and yet they don't provide a monthly billing service is not fantastic. I would give other companies the same rating but in my dealings with octopus whilst they are a friendly they cannot provide a monthly billing. I don't really want to leave my phone number, octopus!

Great, as always!

As always, Octopus is easy to navigate, has a helpful customer service team (which is VERY rare for Germany!), and offers fair prices.

I was an octopus customer when I lived in the UK, and following my move to Germany, I decided to go with them again. So far, happy to see the same excellent service level in a different market.
