Wow wow wow Steve and Sam came to me home in B36 today. The install was quick and very very slick. Workmanship installing my new EV home charger was second to none. I chose Octopus because I wanted a high quality service, my expectation was smashed. If Carlsberg did EV hone charges it would be Octopus. It’s not about price it’s about quality. Great job guys thank you for the professional and friendly service.

Excellent service in supplying and fitting an Ohme EV charger. Easily ordered through App and fitted six days later. Gary H arrived promptly and made a beautiful job of the fitting - good advice and installation. Couldn’t recommend him or the service highly enough. Thank you.

We've been with [Octopus] for nearly 1yr, and it's been 100% trouble free (compared to the hell of being a *** customer!). Octopus have also installed our Ohme car charger and we get cheap EV energy along with great OctoPlus perks. Customer Service is EXEPTIONAL, by email and phone, if you have a query, and they're friendly and sincere too. Keep up the great work Octopus!

What’s the Octopus Energy x Ford home charging offer?
In partnership with Ford, we're making it as easy as possible to own an EV.
We are providing:
• A free home charger with standard installation in Great Britain.
• Up to 10,000 miles Charging Credit in Great Britain.
Available to eligible retail customers with purchases of new Ford all-electric passenger cars contracted by 31st December 2025.
The Offer is available to:
(a) Retail, Ford Lease and Small Fleet customers only (Fleet, Employee and Motability customers are excluded) who have ordered a new Puma Gen-E, Capri, Explorer, Mustang Mach-E, E-Tourneo Custom or E-Tourneo Courier vehicle from a participating Ford dealer between 00:01 on 1st October and 23:59 on 30th December 2025; and
(b) those who do not already have an EV charger installed at your home and are eligible for installation of an Ohme ePod EV charger under Octopus Energy’s EV chargepoint installation terms and conditions available on Octopus Energy’s website;
(c) those over the age of 18 in the United Kingdom (excluding Northern Ireland, the Channel Islands and Isle of Man); and
(d) those who are eligible and agree to the terms of the Intelligent Octopus Go tariff.
I’ve ordered my charger – what happens next?
We’ll ask you to fill out a pre-installation survey that will let us know more about your home set-up.
If the survey looks good, one of our EV specialists will reach out to schedule a date for your EV charger to be installed.
Once the charger’s installed, we’ll send you instructions for switching to the Intelligent Octopus Go tariff.
Your free miles credit will be applied to your energy account within 30 days of your switch to Intelligent Octopus Go, following your charger installation.
Why am I being asked to pay an additional cost?
A standard installation is included in the price of your charger. But if the installation is more complex and our engineers will need to spend more time at your home, it’ll cost a bit more.
Our EV chargepoint installations are grouped into three categories. See the table below for what's included in each installation package:
How do I receive my free miles credit?
Once your charger has been installed, switch to Intelligent Octopus Go. When you're successfully on the tariff, we'll apply the credit directly to your energy account. 10,000 free miles is equivalent to £217.
Once your new charger is installed, simply switch over to Intelligent Octopus Go and we'll do the rest. After you've successfully changed over to the tariff, we'll automatically apply the credit straight to your energy account within 30 days. The 10,000 free miles is equivalent to £217!
When will I receive my free miles credit?
Your £217 credit will be applied to your account within 30 days of your switch to Intelligent Octopus Go, following your charger installation.
How will I know I've received my free miles credit?
You'll spot a £217 credit line on your next energy statement. Alternatively, you can always check the 'bills' section of your Octopus Energy app—it'll be waiting there for you!
How has the free miles credit been calculated?
We calculate the average of the Qualifying Vehicles’ (a new Puma Gen-E, Capri, Explorer, Mustang Mach-E, E-Tourneo Custom or E-Tourneo Courier vehicle) efficiency by dividing the average usable battery size by the official Worldwide Harmonized Light Vehicles Test Procedure (WLTP) test results for range. Predicting exact range is tricky, and range will depend on a number of factors such as speed, style of driving, weather conditions and route condition.
Illustrative example of how we calculate Credit for vehicles on the Intelligent Octopus Go tariff as an average of the Qualifying Vehicles. The average of the Qualifying Vehicles’ efficiency has a usable battery size of 68.5 (kWh); divided by a real world range of 229.53 (miles), gives you 0.31 kWh/mile.
● 0.31 kWh/mile (car's energy efficiency) x 10,000 (miles/year) = 3,100 kWh
● 3,100 kWh x 7pence (price of energy per kWh for off-peak charging on the Intelligent Octopus Go tariff) = £217 (charging costs for 10,000 miles)
For the purposes of calculating the Credit value, we assume that you will only charge your car at home during the Intelligent Octopus Go off-peak window (currently from 23:30-05.30) or during the times that we are smart charging your car at this off-peak rate.
Your free miles translate into a one-time fixed Credit which will be applied to your Octopus Energy account once your Qualifying Vehicle has been delivered, you’ve successfully joined the Intelligent Octopus Go tariff, and your first direct debit has been taken.
Qualifying Vehicles that form part of this Offer may receive more, or in some cases less, than 10,000 free miles of Credit.
Please note the mileage figures shown above are based on WLTP (Worldwide Harmonised Light Vehicle Test Procedure) test data. Actual real world driving results may vary depending on various factors, such as the starting charge of the battery, accessories fitted after registration, weather conditions, driving styles and vehicle load. We shall not be liable for providing Credit for additional mileage under any circumstance.
