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

Why aren't we all seeing the points? I don't have points on my spin the wheel?
Oh, I won £1 last month for first time, think I've been with them about a year and a half

SilenceInside · 20/12/2025 20:24

Is there two versions maybe? Having done an image search for it, there seems to be one with amounts in pounds which includes £0, and a version with octopoints where the minimum is 8pts. Maybe it depends on the kind of account you have with them.

Blanketenvy · 20/12/2025 20:27

Think it's points if you are on a smart meter and opt in to octoplus.

I won a pound once. I have to say I don't like it in principle as it's gambling to get your energy bill down, people might be desperate for that win. Of course I still give it a try each month anyway!

Is it still gambling if there’s no stake involved? Although I suppose they are incentivising us taking meter readings for them so there is a transaction involved.

@CeciliaMars but the lowest number on the wheel is 8, there is no 0 segment. So every spin you get 8 points minimum.

Not on my wheel! It’s pounds, not points…

@CeciliaMars my apologies, it seems as discussed up thread, that there is more than 1 version of the wheel which I was not aware of. One with values in pounds that includes segments with 0, and one with amounts in points where 8 is the minimum. It depends on what account type/opt ins you have as to which you see.

mysteriousellen · 05/01/2026 22:33

8 points each time

Kona84 · 07/01/2026 22:39

Excitingly I won 800 points just now! First time ever 🤣

RainySundayAfternoon · 17/01/2026 11:52

I now have £1.06 in credit, including a couple of other 8’s - I’m giddy with excitement 🥳

Chasingsquirrels · 17/01/2026 11:55

It is points is you have opted into Octopoints. Minimum segment on the Octopoints wheel is 8 = £0.02.

I won £1 once before I opted into Octopoints. Since then I've only ever had 8 points, 2 spins a month, 12 times a year = £0.48 a year.

caringcarer · 17/01/2026 12:02

In about 2 years I only won £1 once. You gest DS has won £1 twice and eldest DS has never won anything.

Blondeshavemorefun · 26/01/2026 01:14

Won tonight again. Another !1

Is it incentivising though? The stinginess of the prizes, and the remote possibillty of winning, is ludicrous to me. An unpleasant experience which does not encourage me to read my meters (Octopus have to prompt me numerous times).

Justthethingsthatyoudointhisgarden · 29/01/2026 13:32

Nada in 3 years. This month's bill is £224, ouch

Alexandra2001 · 29/01/2026 13:36

Been with them since they began, never won a thing, it actually pisses me off, why have a prize draw when your odds of winning even a £1 is beyond tiny?

i find it rather insulting, considering the profits they make.

Happyher · 29/01/2026 13:43

I’ve had an 8000 and an 800

the80sweregreat · 29/01/2026 13:53

Never won a bean.

skeletonbones · 06/02/2026 20:49

Yep customber for yesrs never won anything £0 every month

CeciliaMars · 18/02/2026 12:45

Big news - I won £1!! Octopus has also included a link to a video you can watch to prove someone has won big…maybe they saw this thread!

notgivinga · 18/02/2026 16:32

£1 a few years ago I don’t bother anymore 😊

space99 · 18/02/2026 18:57

I finally won another £1. So that is two whole pounds in about 5 years!!
