Hi there,

Is SOL 22 going to be replaced by SOL 23 if/when Npower follow suit and put there prices up? Or is SOL 22 already priced in at the new higher rate?

Just trying to compare Go Fix 6 and SOL 22 thats all.

Dont want to go for SOL 22 and then find out the expected price rise happens and wished I had fixed.

    SOL22 is a variable rate so will increase as and when npower announce their increase (they haven't at this time). Altho Go Fix is a tad dearer I would opt for that over sol22, as sol23 wheneverthat is released is unlikel;y to be similarly priced!

    Just looking at Scottish Powers cheapest online deal which is unaffected by there recent prices changes.

    With SOL22 only been out for 1 month I'm wondering IF Npower have already priced in there increase to this tariff already and would therefore be unaffected when the prices go up.

    What you'll find with scot pow oes14, altho currently unaffected by the increase 1-8, it is still a variable rate, as still available to customers to sign up to, they will hike the prices by the already announced average margins, just be about Oct/Nov sort of time. A number of the power co's do this with their online deals, they increase them at a later date than the standard increase. But it WILL go up as not a fixed/capped unit rate tariff.

    Yep, they did the same to me on OES 10 but it only went up by 1p a unit rather than 3p in this case.
