5 monthsI gave Octopus a ring and honestly, felt like a total rip-off.Octopus5 monthsGot a call again today, same number, saying they were from a firm named SMS trying to set up a smart meter install for Octopus Energy. Thing is, my smart meters are already fitted, so it really seemed dodgy to me. I've blocked the number now to be safe.SMSOctopus Energy5 monthsI got a call where this automated voice started with "hello, are you there?" and if you stayed quiet it suddenly said, "Hi [YOUR NAME], don't worry this isn't a scam." But honestly, it was all a recorded message, so I wouldn't trust it at all. Feels like a total scam to me.YOUR NAME9 monthsGot a call from 0330 808 9374 about changing my meter install date with Octopus Energy. It shows up as Suspected Spam on my phone, but I can confirm it’s legit and safe.Octopus EnergySpam11 monthsGot a missed call from this number yesterday. At first, Google marked it as spam, but later it showed up as Octopus. Strange thing is, my bank stopped two payments from Octopus adding up to £50 because they tried using the wrong card info. Feels a bit dodgy to me. Octopus wouldn’t normally act like this, right?GoogleOctopus11 monthsJust had a call from Octopus Energy about sorting out my smart meter - seems like they’re rescheduling appointments or something. Anyone else get one of those? Bit of a faff but guess it’s for the better.Octopus Energy11 monthsOctopus Energy got in touch through a company called SMS to set up an appointment for switching my smart meter - seemed totally legit to me.Octopus EnergySMS11 monthsI rang up Octopus Energy to be sure and turns out, it’s definitely a scam.Octopus Energy11 monthsGot a call saying it was from Octopus Energy, arranging a smart meter upgrade visit. Seemed legit, definitely not one of those dodgy scam calls. I booked a slot, and if anything goes wrong when they turn up, I’ll update this review and lodge complaints with Octopus, Ofcom, and maybe even Ofgem just to be safe!Octopus EnergyOctopusOfcomOfgem11 monthsGot a voicemail from Octopus Energy about setting up a time for a Smart Meter fit. It’s not exactly annoying, but since they just informed me that a smart meter can’t actually be installed at my place, I’m a bit confused why they keep bugging me about arranging it!Octopus Energy11 monthsHonestly, I’ve read loads of these comments and some folks are just off the mark... This is obviously Octopus Energy calling, there’s no scam involved. People freaking out because the caller had a couple of numbers from their postcode? Give me a break! How hard is it to realise it’s legit? Use your heads, people!Octopus Energy12 monthsI just wanted to say, Octopus Energy is legit, definitely not a scam!Octopus Energy12 monthsGot a text and call from Octopus energy saying my meter’s being replaced by the end of June with a new smart one. At least this time it wasn't some dodgy scam!Octopus12 monthsReceived a call from someone saying they were from Octopus about upgrading my smart meter. They even mentioned the last three digits of my postcode, which was a bit creepy.Octopus1 yearI just got another call, the second one within a couple of days. It’s obviously some kind of scam or an automated voice since it keeps telling me to change my smart meter before the end of June. But it's already the end of July now as I'm writing this!1 yearGot a call and text from someone saying they were with Octopus Energy. Seems fishy to me since I’ve heard Octopus usually just emails their customers. Probably best to be wary, might be a scam.Octopus EnergyOctopus1 yearGot a call from a number I didn’t recognise, but didn’t pick up and no voicemail was left - quite sure it was probably a scam.1 yearGot a call claiming to be from Octopus about upgrading my smart meter. Sounded dodgy to me.Octopus1 yearThe phone rang, went dead silent for about 5 seconds, then just cut off on its own.1 yearI got a call from this number about stopping the radio signal meter switching. If you’ve got a meter like that (or if they reckon you do!) they might ring to try and get you to set up a Smart Meter install. Like others have mentioned before, you’re under no obligation to agree to a Smart Meter. Honestly, Smart Meters don’t even function properly in loads of spots where radio switching is still used. My suggestion is to push for a Timer Switched Meter instead - it’s an old-school electromechanical kind that’s pretty much foolproof.1 yearSome bloke was calling saying he was from Octopus Energy, asking questions about my meter. Seemed fishy to me.Octopus Energy1 yearI actually work at Octopus Energy and checked this number via SMS. Turns out, this is indeed the one they give to customers for contacting their support.Octopus Energy1 yearGot a call again from that Bawag firm, told the guy I’m gonna report em to Offgem for keepin’ up the hassle. I ain’t their customer, never was and ain’t ever wanna be.BawagOfgem1 yearThis v octopus lot are proper annoying, keep ringing me even tho ive told them im not with them no more and dont live there either. They reckon i do, which is just daft. Ive blocked the number but somehow they still manage to leave messages on my answerphone. So wrong.1 yearGot a call from some Indian call centre claiming my meter was off because of RTS signal or something, and that I needed a new one. Problem is, I don’t even have that type of meter. Just blocked the number straight away.1 yearGot flooded with texts from fraudsters who must’ve somehow got hold of our digits from Octopus Energy without permission. They’re trying to trick us into installing one of those smart meters. Then, there’s the risk of being cut off once our energy supply runs dry - kinda like what happens in Spain - or getting hit with crazy high rates, like £2 per unit. Anyway, I’ve blocked them now.Octopus EnergySpain1 yearI’ve blocked the number, but it still manages to leave a voicemail, which is just ridiculous. I’ve told them multiple times that I don’t live at that address, yet the calls keep coming non stop. They seriously need to update their database to stop all this annoying cold calling. Orfgem really needs to get its act together on this issue.Orfgem1 yearGot a call from Octopus, saying my meter would stop working come June. Thing is, my meter runs on a timer, not some signal. They're just spinning yarns to trick people into switching, probably coz they get a government cut for every smart meter sold. Who’d want to deal with load shedding or pay bonkers rates like £2 per unit? If you’re into that, then sure, get a smart meter. That’s honestly the only reason they’re so crazy about pushing them.Octopus Energy1 yearThis number has been ringing me non-stop for ages, at least a couple of times a day over the last two years. I’ve even contacted Shell and Octopus loads of times asking them to stop with these calls about smart meters, but it doesn’t help. Despite putting the number on block, they somehow still get through and leave voicemails. The last message was about an appointment for a smart meter that I never booked - which is ridiculous since I don’t even live at that address anymore. Pretty sure it’s just a nasty scam trying to scare me.ShellOctopus1 yearThis number rang me again even tho I’ve blocked it. Annoyingly, it still manages to leave a message on my answerphone. Like, how on earth is that even possible? Honestly, I couldn’t be bothered with it as I’ll be moving out before the switchover anyway.1 yearI put the number on block but somehow they still get through and leave a voicemail. How is that even possible?1 yearI got a call from 03308089374 but couldn’t find any info on where it was from. I just ignored it because it went straight to voicemail. When I checked the message, it was one of those robotic recordings about installing a smart meter and said something about doing it by June. Not sure what their plan is, cos I won’t even be living there by then!1 yearI got a couple of calls from someone claiming to be from Octopus Energy about a smart meter. Heads up though, mine's been fitted quite some time ago and they've rung me twice already regarding it. So, no worries about it being a scam, but they can be a bit persistent if you've already got one!Octopus Energy1 yearI got a text saying someone from Octopus Energy was arranging a time to swap out my electricity meters for smart ones.Octopus Energy1 yearSomeone's been texting about meter replacements, said they're from Octopus Energy.Octopus Energy1 yearBy June 2025 loads of meters are going to have their RTS signals switched off, which might mean you end up paying more or your heating could get stuck on or off. If you want to get a better idea for yourself, have a look at the articles on Money Saving Expert, BBC, and Octopus.Money Saving ExpertBBCOctopus1 yearHad a call about getting a new meter fitted by Octopus.1 yearBooked a meter replacement with Octopus or someone representing them.Octopus1 yearI just ignored the call and have gone ahead and blocked the number now.1 yearSome bloke said he was Muhammad from Octopus, but he messed up my name so I just hung up on him halfway through.MuhammadOctopus1 yearGot a text about a meter being installed, and it was legit. Definitely don't mark it as spam!1 yearI didn’t answer the calls cause the number was strange to me, but they kept ringing me over and over again in just a few days. They never left any voicemail, which made me think it was one of those auto dialler things. Sounds like classic scam behaviour, if you ask me.1 yearI hung up quick, didn't even let my husband pick up the phone.1 yearI’m with Octopus and got a call from SMS Energy about changing my meter that’s set to expire in June 2025. They’re the firm Octopus picked to handle the job. Octopus actually emailed me a while back saying someone would contact me to arrange the replacement. So I wasn’t surprised by the call - it was definitely legit and for a proper purpose.Octopus EnergySMS EnergyOctopus1 yearI got a text message saying it was from Octopus, but it wasn’t really them. Curious, I rang the number back to learn more since I already have a smart meter and wanted to see what they were about. In the end, I decided not to share any details and went ahead and blocked the number.Octopus1 yearCalled by some dodgy numbers and I told them straight away they're just spammers!2 yearsI’ve gotten a few calls from this number, but there's never anyone who talks, and they never bother to leave a message. So, I just went ahead and blocked it.2 yearsI’ve been getting calls and texts saying they’re from Octopus too. Using a bit of sense, I took a screenshot and showed it to Octopus, and they told me straight up it wasn’t them. It’s just a typical scam trying to trick you into switching your meter to some dodgy company. Don’t let anyone in your house saying they’re there to install a “new meter”. It’s definitely not Octopus - you can ring them and check yourself.Octopus EnergyOctopus2 yearsOctopus Energy gave me this number because I’ve got one of those meters with the black box thingy, the RTS Meter, that sends out radio signals for the Economy 7 day and night setup. Apparently, those radio signals are stopping in June 2025. So, I need to get a new meter soon or else it won’t read properly and my bills will be off. I can tell you, this isn’t a con or anything dodgy.Octopus Energy2 yearsLoads of people here are annoyed about the call being about smart meters, but honestly the call wasn’t dodgy or trying to rip anyone off or get your bank info. The firm (SMS) is probably hired by your energy company (ours is Octopus) to arrange smart meter installs. I told the bloke we already had a new meter fitted by Octopus not long ago, and he said sorry for bothering me and that he’d fix their records.Octopus2 yearsGot two calls in less than three hours from these guys really pushing me to call them back about swapping out my electricity meter. The meter’s fine as it is, so I’m not having it changed. I also never gave my energy supplier permission to share my contact info.2 yearsGot a message claiming they were from Octopus Energy about installing a Smart Meter. Felt a bit iffy about it, so did a quick search. Turns out, it’s just a scam trying to trick people.Octopus Energy2 yearsGot a text from someone saying they were calling for Octopus, trying to set up a smart meter install. They said both my meters were "out of date." The person was quite polite and seemed to get why I was hesitant, since millions of smart meters have issues. Told them I’d only be interested once all problems are sorted. This was their third call now, so I’m going to block the number - it’s starting to feel like harassment.Octopus2 yearsKeeps ringing from Octopus wanting me to get a smart meter installed, won't let up at all. Feels like they're trying to bully me into it. Proper annoying.Octopus Energy2 yearsGot another text supposedly from Octopus. Whenever I ring them up about it, they just say if your meter’s functioning and you don’t fancy a smart one, just ignore it. Feels like another way for Ed Miliband and the government to keep an eye on us. Honestly, with the way they’ve handled money, they’re the ones who should be put under control, not us!OctopusEd Milliband2 yearsAs soon as i picked up the call, they just ended it right away.2 yearsGot a text claiming to be from Octopus, something about my meter being old and needing a new smart one fitted. I told them my meter's working fine, charging me exactly for what I’m using, no issues whatsoever. Asked them why it needs replacing if it’s not faulty. Told them there’s no point fixing what’s not broken. Definitely feels like a total rip-off to me, don’t trust it.Octopus2 yearsTHIS BLOKE WAS PROPER PUSHY - HE CALLED ME VIA TEXT ON BEHALF OF OCTOPUS ENERGY... RIGHT AWAY HE WAS TRYING TO SET UP AN APPOINTMENT TO INSTALL A NEW METER (DIDN'T MENTION IT WAS A SMART ONE AT FIRST) - SAID MY OLD METER HAD REACHED THE END OF ITS 35 YEARS.. SAID PARTS FOR IT WEREN'T MADE ANYMORE. I POLITELY THANKED HIM FOR HIS CONCERN ABOUT MY METER BUT ENDED THE CALL QUICKLY.2 yearsGot three calls and a voicemail saying my smart meter needs to be installed because my current one is out of order. I’m not interested at all, so I ignored the calls and won't be calling back. Honestly, can do without that hassle!2 yearsThis smart meter nonsense is bonkers, claiming my meter’s dying but I’m still here and won't be swapped out, haha. Honestly, I don’t see the point of having one, and nobody should be pushed into getting a smart meter installed - that’s just harassment in disguise! If you’re not keen, you simply don’t have to get one. It feels like the government trying to keep tabs on us again. I know a few folks who went for smart meters and ended up with nothing but problems, and now they say they wish they'd thought twice. So yeah, don’t ever feel like you must accept one - just say no!2 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be linked with Octopus Energy. They said my gas and electric meters needed updating and wanted to book a smart meter installation. I told them no, ended the call straight away, and blocked the number. I'm on the TPS list and never pick up these random calls anyway, plus there's no chance I'm letting them put a smart meter in.Octopus EnergyTelephone Preference Service2 yearsGot a voicemail from Octopus Energy about installing a smart meter. Not interested, so I’m ignoring it and won’t be getting back to them.Octopus Energy2 yearsIs there any means by which these bothersome callers can face repercussions?2 yearsI've received this call on two occasions now.2 yearsGot a call from someone saying they’re with SMS and working for Octopus Energy. Apparently, my meter’s outdated and needs swapping. I told them to get in touch through Octopus directly via email instead.Octopus EnergyOctopus2 yearsDidn't leave a message, caller was from an unfamiliar number.2 yearsI reckon Octopus Energy just got tired of bombarding me with emails about installing a smart meter.Octopus Energy2 yearsLooks like from what others are saying it’s Octopus Energy and maybe to do with smart meters? I’ve got their service as well. Probably just one of those sales calls. Didn’t pick up cause it showed as an unknown number.Octopus Energy2 yearsGot a call from Octopus Energy trying to push me into getting one of their Smart Meters installed. Nah, I’m good without it.Octopus Energy2 yearsHad a call from Octopus Energy bugging me to get a smart meter installed. Absolutely not interested, no way am I signing up for that!Octopus Energy3 yearsI just got off the phone with my energy supplier, Octopus, and they assured me that they haven’t sent me any text messages. Clearly, it’s a scam trying to trick me. Don’t let yourself get caught out by their bogus threats regarding fees for missed appointments. Make sure you report, block, and erase this number from your contacts!Octopus4 yearsYeah, I’ve heard from a couple of mates about Octopus and their smart meter installs, but honestly, whether the engineers actually show up is a bit hit and miss. Two of them ended up waiting and no one ever turned up in the end.Octopus4 yearsHad Octopus Energy out to fit my smart meter recently. Their installation service was pretty smooth and hassle-free. Quite impressed with how tidy and quick the process was, made understanding my usage a lot easier. Would definitely recommend if you’re thinking about getting one done.Octopus Energy6 yearsGot a call, only rang twice then cut off. I rang back and it was about smart meters. Sounded good, said I'd get one if they could install it. Then they said no engineers nearby, which isn’t surprising living on the west coast of Scotland. They keep calling though, so I’ve blocked the number now.Scotland6 yearsI had to get in touch with Octopus Energy because my meter needed swapping out. They were quite helpful setting up the replacement.Octopus Energy6 yearsHad octopus energy pop round for a smart meter install the other day, and honestly, it went pretty smoothly.

Why bother making it so complicated?Octopus Energy7 yearsThey've called me two days in a row now but never leave a voicemail. If they try this once more, I’m definitely blocking the number.7 yearsThis number keeps ringing me up loads of times. I never pick up calls from unknown numbers, so I have no clue who’s calling. They haven’t left a single voicemail either. Honestly, it’s getting pretty annoying now.Submit Your Own Report (0330 808 9374)
