Yep the gas cost has barely moved upwards since temps plunged, but electricity costs are creeping up sadly and leccy makes up most of my bill, still very grateful for getting things cheaper than EPG.Alnat1 said:The Tracker gas is still doing ok, 5.28p today (Yorkshire)
Amazing since EPG introduced gas tracker has not hit the tariff cap once which means I still dont know my regional EPG unit rate for gas.0 -
An (unfortunate?) effect of setting the cap based on historic price data perhaps? Although I’ve not seen a suggestion of any other way of setting.Chrysalis said:

Almost 6p/kWh for me today, and (judging by Marex) likely to be higher again tomorrow.Chrysalis said:

And yet the weather is warming up again. Or is the gas price just catching up with the cold snap, or is it all rather more complicated than that?Almost 6p/kWh for me today, and (judging by Marex) likely to be higher again tomorrow.0 -
Yeah but Octopus never communicated to some of us if gas tracker is affected by EPG, so the only way to know because they didnt communicate is to see where it caps at. If its the product cap of 11p or regional EPG cap.ChaunceyGardiner said:

Every single day since EPG started gas tracker has been below both caps.0
