Just that really - I’m curious as to anyone has ever won anything!

Maybe it's the newer customers who get points and the older ones get money when they spin. I've been with them 2 or 3 years and usually win 8 points, sometimes nothing. Never any more than that.

I think 8 points is around 1p.

I get the free coffee most weeks (that's not a win though, it's just the weekly offer).

@CeciliaMars they are doing a black Friday special things. Prizes are being announced twice daily. Normally I only get 8 points.... sigh. The promotion is called pink Friday.

I won 8,000 points once! It knocked some money off my bill. Only ever been 8 points since, though - about two years. Just checked, apparently I'm now up to 5,000 points which is worth about £6 credit. Hey, it's not nothing.

MrsKateColumbo · 25/11/2025 23:12

I won £1 twice

I also one £10 on the lottery once!

JDM625 · 25/11/2025 23:12

I've also one 800 octopoints once, which is probably about 0.00001p! Otherwise, I only get the 8 octopoints for submitting my meter readings.

augustusglupe · 25/11/2025 23:14

£1 about 6 months ago.

Sparklechoppy · 25/11/2025 23:16

£1 at one time
Often it doesn't work

NormanSicily · 25/11/2025 23:26

Yes, a couple of months ago I won £1 on both the gas and electric spin. I've been a customer for around 7 years. But shit really

olderbutwiser · 25/11/2025 23:52

I joined a month ago with a smart meter and no points offered as prizes. Obviously not won anything either!

HoppityBun · 25/11/2025 23:54

No

pencilcaseandcabbage · 26/11/2025 00:03

I've been with them for years. Had them for some time in our old house which we left 7 years ago. Never won anything.

@CeciliaMars different prizes every day via octoplus. Also a chance to win a electric vehicle on Friday. You have to enter the draw is on Friday x

xSideshowAuntSallyXx · 26/11/2025 06:39

I got 800 points the other month. It takes so long to build it up to anything worthwhile these days (previously I could take quite a bit off my bill but they reduced the worth a couple of years ago), I ended up donating it to charity.

Monty27 · 26/11/2025 06:44

Nil points 6 years in

YouDriveMeCrazyButICanDoThatMyself · 26/11/2025 06:48

I’m up to around £14.85 worth of points, I’ve won 800 maybe 3/4 times, the rest of the time 8 points.

Pp asked about meter readings if on a smart meter, I think I add them maybe twice a year just to check it all tallies.

KrystalStubbs · 26/11/2025 06:49

I won £1 recently. I'm going to have a look at my app as I've never heard of points or free coffees.

ChopstickNovice · 26/11/2025 06:49

Only ever 8 points!

CluelessAboutBiology · 26/11/2025 06:49

Once won £1.

RainySundayAfternoon · 26/11/2025 06:51

I can’t find the wheel to spin it any more! Where has it gone? 🤣

Westfacing · 26/11/2025 07:09

Seems I'm the only big winner here! 😄

AlexaStopAlexaNo · 26/11/2025 07:30

Never had any points but I did win a pink toy octopus last year!

Lennonjingles · 26/11/2025 08:01

Walkacrossthesand · 25/11/2025 22:46

Maybe £1 once, a long time ago - been with them at least 10 years. I spin the wheel twice every month with meter readings.
Incidentally, what about people with smart meters - do you submit a meter reading to verify the meter? I’ve resisted all their enticements to get a smart meter - I wonder if that means my spins are a waste of time?

Yes, I submit both gas and electricity, although I have a smart meter, so it lets you have 2 spins.

LezUlez · 26/11/2025 08:06

Another pound winner here - one about ? 10 years ago, one in the past year. I'm another smart meter resister, so I don't think that's a factor

Lifejigsaw · 26/11/2025 08:40

Only joined octopus last month and won 800 points then
