OK, Octopus Go & Octopus Agile are not actual tariffs, they’re kinda experimental, so when I signed up a few months back following the links to Octopus Agile it gave me the Octopus Direct fixed tariff for 12m & said that they would switch me to Agile once they had some half-hour smart meter readings to see if they could get reliable data. The critical thing is that they can get the usage for each half-hour period so they can charge you properly. I have a SMETS 2 meter so it only took two or three weeks before “The Octopus went Agile!”, I’d assume similar timescale for Octopus Go. The other thing that you probably don’t know yet is that there are also Octopus Go Faster tariffs where the cost could be say 5.5p/kWh for 5 hours instead of the 4 hours with Go, and the time period covered could start at say 8:30 in the evening if you’re lucky. You could likely switch on to an Octopus Go Faster tariff at some time in the future if you fancied cheap electric at a different time.
Gotcha thanks for that, informative as usual.
