    11.62p on Dec23 version here (Eastern) tomorrow. 
    I'm not going to complain though, I thought the days of it being even this cheap were long gone.

    Not sure that with its new pricing, returning to Tracker from Agile is going to be an option for us now in Eastern area in the winter; we seemed to be being hammered despite all the offshore wind turbines and Sizewell nearby.  Making 15p/kwh whilst the sun makes its brief apperances, hope that this will subsidise our Agile tariff across the winter. Our Agile average was 6.64p in March, helped by a couple of days where we hammered the negative pricing (as we'll try and do again this weekend).

    I've mentioned one option just a few posts up. Submit readings around any cheap days where it is important to you that you are billed for the correct consumption. Readings are treated as being for the start of the day in question, so subtract usage so far today and send that in against today, then do the same tomorrow and you'll capture an accurate number of kWh for today.

    I’m not seeing any rates for electricity today on the Octopus App, Octo-Aid,Octopusenergy site etc. are they showing anywhere? (Yorkshire region).

    My Nov 22 rates haven’t shown for a month now but Dec 23 would be a guide. They don’t seem to be able to bill me either, it’s 10 days late now.

    Octopus appear not to be updating the data for their legacy variable tariffs via their API, but you can still infer pricing using the fixed V1 tariff: https://api.octopus.energy/v1/products/SILVER-2017-1/electricity-tariffs/E-1R-SILVER-2017-1-M/standard-unit-rates/
    I have no idea whether your automated billing problem is due to lack of pricing data or something else.

    I can’t see any rates for any electricity tariff, anywhere, for today though. I don’t expect to see Nov 22 but there should be today’s rates for at least the current tariff somewhere.

    I don't think I can help you with you not being able to see it, but here is today's price in the Yorkshire region for the April 2024 Tracker from the Octopus website:

    Here it is from mysmartenergy.uk:

    The gas tracker web page has been working for me.  I find their emails are much later in the day so unsubscribed as I was checking the web page myself long before the e-mails arrived every day.
