How to fix Octopus Energy not working
Octopus Energy is up on our end, so if it won't work for you, the problem is most likely on your side. Work through these in order:
Your browser tries to reach octopus.energy over your own connection, right now. Nothing is sent to us or stored.
Reload and restart
Reload the page (Ctrl+F5, or Cmd+Shift+R on a Mac), or fully close the app and open it again.
Try another connection
Switch between Wi-Fi and mobile data. If it works on one and not the other, the problem is your network, not Octopus Energy.

Problems at the same time as Octopus Energy
Since 28 October, Octopus Energy's only spike in problem reports overlapped a spike at another service.
When several services get problem reports at once, something they share, such as a cloud host or a network, can be the real cause. Matching times alone do not prove it.

How we track Octopus Energy
The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for Octopus Energy, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for Octopus Energy, so a few complaints on a quiet day don't trigger anything, but a sudden jump well above normal does.
When reports climb well above normal, the status here changes to partial outage or major outage and the chart moves with it. Octopus Energy doesn't publish a public status page that we know of, so user reports are often the quickest sign that something is wrong on their side.
