    I see that the SO Energy So Tulip is now being promoted [by Uswitch] as the cheapest available fixed tariff. Usual problem re comparing fixed with variable tariffs incl Tracker.
    What rate do they offer for export?
  • Pass. Might it be that not all providers do actually offer export tariffs? A good point to bear in mind, at the expense of making the whole exercise more complicated.

    There are also unknown unknowns - the one's we don't know we don't know

    On the matter of export, did you manage to get Octopus to sort out your Outgoing Fixed?
  • I believe I have. But the accounting system is deficient, as I have pointed out to them (there doesn't seem to be a look-up showing what has been exported and credited) and I have  to run my own spreadsheet, which is a hassle.

    Your online account (or the app) shows your export by day, month etc, up to the last smart meter data. It only gets credited when a bill is raised.

    Had an email that been on Tracker for almost 12months and to let them know if want to stay on it otherwise it will default back to Flexible Octopus. If I elect to stay with Tracker will it be a more expensive version than now and would anyone care to offer any advice on what they would do, thanks
