Still nonsense. There are customers currently on V1 and V2 who are paying the lower SC.

I emailed Octopus on the 6th querying the date of my gas switch to Tracker and asking if I could be put on V2 not V3. It took them a fortnight but I have received a reply late this afternoon:

When looking at your Tracker tariff I can see that you are on V3, the third version of the tariff was released on the 22nd of April so 2 days before your gas was switched over to us.

Seems like I missed V2 by a couple of days   which should teach me not to prevaricate so much, I guess!

Not a great start to the week, with the highest wholesale electricity price of the month so far - tomorrow's unit rate likely to be circa. 36.7p/kWh.

If the rises of the past week+ continue, we'll soon be hitting the v2/v3 cap of 40p/kWh!

Is there a good website which shows the wholesale prices of uk gas and electric for the day?

Yes, shared a couple of half a dozen pages back (has it really been that long).

Nordpool for electricity (£ per MWh so divide by 10 to get p per kWh, and make sure you're using GBP prices, not EUR ones)

Marex for gas (look for NBP All Day DA, in pence per therm, so divide by 29.3 to get p per kWh)

Thank you for this 🙂
Let's hope those electricity prices start to fall soon

Works out ok for me as I've got Agile Outgoing paying 20-40p tomorrow over the hours I'll be exporting. 22kWh exported today, similar weather expected tomorrow although a bit warmer so might peg it back a bit. Usually use about 0.2-0.4kWh from the grid so looking good for a profitable day tomorrow.

Thanks.

36.3p/kWh in this part of the world, so slighlty better than 36.7, I guess...

7.46p for gas and 35.19p electric in Yorkshire

Wholesale down a bit today, so 34.7p/kWh (for me) tomorrow.
