House on the Market and tenants just vacated - best deal whilst I wait to sell?

My property was previously being managed but now the tenants have vacated and house is on the market I have taken over thing and I'm not so in the loop - so thanks in advance for your help!
Current supplier is Octopus Energy, house will be vacate for a few months whilst I try and sell. Heating only used to keep pipes warm to avoid freezing. Am I best to leave the supplier as is or is there a better supplier to switch to who may offer cashback or other incentive making it worth while to switch?
Many thanks!

    Bung your annualised expected usage for the relevant period into Citizens Advice and 'Switch with Which?' and see what comes up.  Remember to check separate suppliers, not just dual fuel.  Then go to the referrals board on MSE for cashback deals.

    I hope you have opened an account with Octopus Energy and given them the starting readings now you are responsible for the energy bills. Probably easiest to stick with them when usage is low, as savings from switching might not be significant.
