I thought my Fix was supposed to get cheaper on 1st April 2026!
On MSE: "Average annual energy bills will fall by 6.7% on 1 April for those on standard price-capped tariffs (most households) but unprecedentedly, the prices of fixed tariffs will also drop in April." On EoNnext website: "Fixed tariff customers will remain at the prices they agreed when they took their contract out."

I'm on the Octopus Fixed Tariff until 3 June 2026, 24.08p per kWh, 47.28p per day and pay via DD £204 per month. No gas. I'm a bit confused as to what to do for the best.

IHD was not commission when installed, new supplier asking me to buy a replacement.
Hi all, My previous supplier installed a smart meter for me, but the IHD (In-Home Display) was never commissioned.
