Fix electricity prices for 12, 13 or 14 months?

Hello,

With my variable electricity tariff from Green due to rise considerably from mid-February, I'm looking to switch back to Symbio who are offering 12-, 13- and 14-month fixed tariffs, whose rates are very similar to each other and are fixed till January, February and March 2022 respectively. I'm more inclined towards the 14-month fix, but would love to hear from the community what you would go for if you had to choose between them?

    I'm joining Symbio and went for 14 months. Actually it'll only be 13 months by the time it goes live. The difference in unit price was tiny and I figured it is more likely than not that prices will be higher by this time next year so another month or two of a probable lower rate made sense. Of-course it might not turn out that way but it seems a reasonable bet.
