    Installing a home wall box

    The location of your home wall box will depend on the position of your home fuse box or meter and how you park your car. Most installations are eligible for standard installation however, in some cases groundworks and additional upgrades may be required. Most UK homes have single-phased power, which enables a 7kW wall box to be installed, while larger homes with 3-phase power may be able to host a higher-powered wall box. Pod Point offer a free consultation over the phone to find out if your home is suitable for a wall box.

    What if Pod Point can’t install a home wall box?

    Sometimes, a home wall box isn’t suitable for your home, because wiring is unfit or because you don’t have off-street parking, for example. In these cases, we recommend you contact your local council, who may be able to install a charge point on your street. You can find a nearby charger using the Zap-Map app.

New customers to Octopus Energy who purchase an Audi electric vehicle and who set up an account for gas and/or electricity and sign up via the referral link provided by Audi UK will be eligible for free miles in the form of £45 credit per fuel type on their energy account. To receive £90 credit, customers must switch both fuels (gas and electricity) to Octopus Energy. If only one account is switched, the customer will receive £45 credit. The credit shall be applied once the account is on supply and the first direct debit payment has been taken. If you qualify for more than one marketing incentive, Octopus reserves the right to give you just one incentive. To benefit from the Octopus Go Green tariff, the customer must have a SMETS2 smart meter or a SecureTM branded SMETS1 meter that they have agreed to let Octopus receive half-hourly consumption data from. There are some instances where a smart meter installation is not possible, for example remote areas with poor mobile signal. Where smart meter installation is not possible, customers can sign up to an Octopus standard tariff and still receive the £45 credit per fuel type. Existing Octopus Energy customers who joined Octopus Energy directly and purchase an electric vehicle from Audi can still avail this offer and should contact Octopus Energy directly on evoffers@octopus.energy to request a switch and/or add credit to their account. Existing customers must not have claimed other Octopus joining rewards (and must not have joined via a refer a friend scheme or another Octopus partner) to be eligible. Audi UK reserves the right to withdraw the offer without notice. Correct as of November 2022.
