Before you switch
A quick Warm Home Discount check
Switching to Octopus Energy could be a good option, and if you use our referral link you can receive £50 credit after you switch.
However, if you receive or may qualify for the £150 Warm Home Discount, it is worth checking your position before changing supplier. The timing of your switch can matter.
For the 2026/27 scheme, 23 August 2026 was the qualifying date for the Core Group. In most cases, you needed to be with a participating energy supplier on that date. Switching to a participating supplier afterwards does not make you eligible for the Core Group discount for that scheme year.
If you live in Scotland and may qualify through the Broader Group, the rules are different because applications are handled by individual suppliers. If you have already successfully applied through your current supplier, it may be best to wait until the discount has been applied before switching.
Once you have checked your position, you can continue below to find out more about switching to Octopus Energy and receiving your £50 switching credit.
