@majordennisbloodnok 

Yes, it was unintentional.

My excuse for the confusion being that my understanding of Octopus is similar to yours...  

I broadly think it is more about "Octopus are constantly experimenting with tariffs". They are generally encouraging changes of behaviour (to adjust to renewable production) in clients. At various stages of rolling them out, they realise they need to adjust them (be it for customer behaviour or market changes). But they honour their contracts. So this builds trust, market share and probably reduces churn.  

Other companies can be much more focused on near term bottom line.

@majordennisbloodnok I have only been with OE for about 3 years or so but must say that my experience is extremely positive; their attitude to fair dealing and any problem solving leaves most other suppliers way behind in the dust! I very much approve of G.J.’s ethos and truly believe that he is on the side of the angels. No business gets 100% right all the time but on the very few occasions I have had reason to contact OE by email or telephone, matters are sorted out and resolved very quickly and with great courtesy; can’t say fairer than that! Regards, Toodles.
