    Dont discount Agile either. Based on my usage over the past week,  they come out pretty similar. This is with no load shifting as I'm (stupidly)  currently on flexible...
    The new tracker formula has made them very similar.

    That's a good shout 👍

    I hadn't looked and like yourself if we were on the December 2023 v1 Tracker rates and had not shifted any load to cheaper times the December 2923 v1 Agile would have been cheaper.

    That's very interesting I shall definitely compare them during winter until they force tracker users off the Nov 2022 v1 and other tracker tariffs with the same formula.

    Any idea how long they take to switch you over to the tracker when applying on the website

    I requested the switch online at the end of November and hadn't heard anything after a week so I emailed them and they did the switch straight away. But as others have said, if you want it done quickly probably best to call them.

    As long as you have a smart meter which is reliably providing readings to Octopus it should be more or less instant if you phone.
  • Am I right in thinking that Octopus Compare is an app that works only on a mobile not on a Windows desktop? Is there anything similar for Windows?

    Yes, and I'm not aware of anything available that isn't a mobile app. Guy Lipman had a bill calculator on his website, but I don't think it has been maintained.
  • .. and I don't think GL's data includes Tracker for some reason  :'(
