Look at Outfox's own status page
Outfox Energy does not run a public status page, so outages surface first on its help pages and on its social-media accounts. A notice in either place means the fault is theirs, not yours.
Sign in to your Outfox Energy account in seconds. View and pay bills, track gas + electricity usage, submit meter readings, manage your direct debit and message customer service — from the Outfox Energy app or the web portal.
Neither this page nor Google can see inside Outfox Energy's systems, so nobody can tell you from the outside whether the portal is up. What you can do is settle it yourself in about a minute — and the three checks below also tell you whether the fault is theirs or your own session, which decides whether resetting your password is worth the trouble.
Outfox Energy does not run a public status page, so outages surface first on its help pages and on its social-media accounts. A notice in either place means the fault is theirs, not yours.
The website and the Outfox Energy app are two separate front ends on the same account, and they rarely break together. If Customer Portal will not load in the browser, open the app; if the app hangs on a spinner, open the portal in a private browsing window instead.
Phone lines keep running through a portal outage. Call 0800 103 2702 (Mon-Fri, 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m.; Sat, 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.) and an adviser can read your balance, take a meter reading and take a payment with your account number alone.
Everything up and it is still refusing you? Then it is your credentials, not the platform: reset the password from Outfox's forgotten-password page using the email address your bills are sent to.
Overview
The Outfox Energy login gives UK customers secure access to Customer Portal on the web or the mobile app. Once you're in, you can view and pay bills, check past transactions, track usage, submit meter readings, manage direct debit dates, and message customer service without queueing on the phone.
You can sign in two ways: through the Outfox Energy web portal (best on a laptop or desktop) or through the Outfox Energy app on your phone or tablet. Both share the same credentials — a single email and password gets you into either.
What Customer Portal lets you do
Power cut right now?
Your app and online account need power and internet. If you've lost supply, your network operator (not your supplier) restores it: call 105 free, 24/7 (Northern Ireland: 03457 643 643), then report it on the live UK map.
Step-by-step
Follow these six steps once and the Outfox Energy app will remember you from then on.
Get the official Outfox Energy app from Google Play, the App Store or your device's app store. Avoid third-party download mirrors.
Open the app and choose Register or Create account. Enter your email and create a strong password (at least 12 characters, mixed case + a symbol).
Provide the account number printed on a recent Outfox Energy bill, plus your supply postcode. Outfox Energy matches these against your supply on the MPAN/MPRN register.
Click the verification link in the confirmation email. Check Spam, Junk and Promotions if it does not arrive within five minutes.
Return to the app or web portal and sign in with your email and password.
Switch on Face ID, fingerprint or a PIN inside the app settings to skip the password on future sign-ins.

Always install from the official store below. Avoid sideloaded APKs or third-party mirrors — those are how scammers harvest sign-in credentials.

Locked out and fed up with Outfox?
An account you cannot get into is a fair reason to look at what else is out there. Switching takes about five minutes and you keep the same meter, the same pipes and the same wires — only the billing changes.
A great app makes managing your account easier, but the real saving comes from being on the right tariff. UK households can save up to £300 per year by switching to a supplier that fits their actual usage.
Common questions
Open Customer Portal in a browser, or the Outfox Energy app on your phone, and sign in with the email address and password you registered. Both front ends share one set of credentials, so a password that works in the app works on the website. If you have never signed in before, register first with the account number printed on a recent Outfox Energy bill plus your supply postcode.
Use the Forgotten password link on the sign-in screen (direct link) and enter the email you registered with. The reset email normally lands within a couple of minutes; if nothing arrives, check Spam, Junk and Promotions, and make sure you are using the address the bills are sent to rather than a newer one. Still stuck after 15 minutes, call 0800 103 2702 (Mon-Fri, 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m.; Sat, 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.) and an adviser can reset it on the account.
Meter readings are the single most common reason people sign in. In Customer Portal the option sits under Meter readings or Submit a reading; in the Outfox Energy app it is usually on the home screen. Enter the digits before the decimal point or the red numbers, and nothing else. If you have a working smart meter the fields may be greyed out, which means Outfox Energy is already reading the meter remotely and there is nothing for you to send.
Paying inside Customer Portal is the route that credits the right account fastest, because the payment is attached to your account number automatically. If you cannot get in, the automated payment line on 0800 103 2702 takes a card payment without a login — have your account number and the amount on the bill to hand. A direct debit set up in the account also keeps running while you are locked out; a failed login never stops a scheduled payment.
No — day-to-day sign-in only needs your email and password. The account number is needed once, when you first register the online account, so Outfox Energy can match you to the right supply. It is printed on every bill, usually near the top with your supply address. The 13-digit MPAN (electricity) and 6 to 10-digit MPRN (gas) on the bill identify the meter itself and are not login credentials.
It happens, and it is worth ruling out before you reset anything. Outfox Energy announces outages on its help pages and its social-media accounts first, and a genuine outage hits the app and the website at the same time. If only one of the two is stuck, the problem is local: sign out, clear the site data for Outfox Energy in your browser, or reopen the page in a private window. Phone agents keep working through an outage — 0800 103 2702, Mon-Fri, 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m.; Sat, 9 a.m. to 2 p.m..
Start at the registration page, then enter the email address Outfox Energy already holds for you, your account number and your supply postcode. A verification email confirms the address; the link inside it expires, so open it the same day. Registering does not change your tariff or your direct debit — it only opens the online account on the supply you already have.
The Outfox Energy app is published through the official Google Play and Apple App Store channels and uses HTTPS with token-based authentication. Turn on biometric login (fingerprint or Face ID) plus a screen lock for an extra layer. Outfox Energy will never ask for your password by email, text or phone — anyone who does is running a scam, and that is true even if the caller quotes your account number.
