  • Just to let people know, the Avro website is still running and producing bills.

    I entered my meter readings on the 24th (i.e. after they stopped trading).

    Today, a September bill appeared in my account with gas & elec charged at the 'old' Avro fixed tariff rate.

    That will corrected. Avro went into liquidation the moment that Ofgem appointed the SoLR.

    Avro ceased trading according to Octopus on the 26th Sept.

    When Breeze went under, the switchover date for tariffs and charging at the higher rate was many weeks after their collapse. But then, British Gas were the SoLR for that and it was a shambles, so it may be the true date of Octopus' appointment this time. We just don't know, other than it won't be before the SoLR was appointed.

      I don't know why you're posting in answer to my request for information, because you clearly don't have any.
    That's a bit unkind.
    The reason was that the switch had been applied for some weeks ago.
    There is certainly no need to get snotty with people trying to inform you.

    I'm curious to know what the "Flexible October" tariffs are.
    My switch to Avro/Octopus won't complete until next week so they haven't contacted me just yet but I would like some idea now of what I'll be charged.

    Gosh - that was a leap in the dark.  Go to
    Type in your postcode, wait for the screen to load, then scroll down and click the filter option  Flexible.

    It's interesting that Octopus only offers 'popular' tariffs for quotes. No wonder they became popular if that's all they offer.

    I don't see that option. All I see us "Octopus Tracker" "Super Green Octopus" and "Octopus 24M Fixed". There is no filter option.

    Don't click on "Get a quote", just enter your postcode below it, then you get a filters option and can select Flexible from that. In that list is "Flexible Octopus October 2021 v1", which may be what Avro customers will get put on. We shall see.
