 I meant, substitute it in the URLs for the tracker demo that you posted.Telegraph_Sam said:>> Umiamz: My area is "F". But I don't see where this could be input n the "All our tariffs" page but assume the same effect is achieved by entering one's post code as requested at the start.

 https://octopus.energy/tracker-demo-detail/?context=1&code=E-1R-SILVER-2017-1-F&consumption=2900&type=electricity&inapp=false
 Does this then give me the accurate prices or just "demo" prices?Telegraph Sam

            I tried substituting "gas" for "electricity" in the URL but still it persists in giving me only the electricity prices for region "F"Telegraph Sam

 You need to change the 'E' at the beginning of E-1R-SILVER-2017-1-F to 'G', like it is in the URLs that you posted, in addition to changing 'electricity' to 'gas'. That will give you the current prices for your region.Telegraph_Sam said:I tried substituting "gas" for "electricity" in the URL but still it persists in giving me only the electricity prices for region "F"

            Tks for demystifying that. I wonder how many other Tracker people have sussed that out. I have also changed the numbers in the URL to correspond to my estimated usage though what effect that will have remains to be seen.Telegraph Sam

            Actually having now put in the correct data for the North East it looks like Tracker isn't quite as attractive as I had imagined ( ). Present fixed contract with Octopus lasts till 5th April so I have some time to reassess.                        Telegraph Sam ).

 Yes, the tariff page is updated daily as per the Guy Lipman Tracker chart.Telegraph_Sam said:Confusing but it looks like I was wrong. Is the tariff page updated daily in the case of Tracker?0
