    I've jumped onto a fix too, stayed with Octopus for the no exit fees. Ideally would have switched to the cheaper fix on Jan 2nd when I got my email, but didn't have time then deliberated too much and missed it. 

    Its been good, but the writing has been on the wall for it for a few months now, and doesn't look like there will be any point in returning to tracker anytime soon.

    Just seen the price tomorrow - 43p!  Yeowch!

    Didn't think I'd be likely to make a snap decision but Cosy is tempting, consistently below SVT.  What have we got left, under a month of Tracker Dec 23?  Hmmm.

    Edit: Thursday til the weekend looks much better, and next week looks kind of normal.  No snap decisions here yet.

    Don't you need a heat pump for Cosy? Or have Octopus relaxed that?
    (Asking for Rosie1001 and her RTS-metered storage heaters ...)
    Edit: it currently needs a heat pump or an elecric boiler:

    If you have a heat pump (air or ground source) or electric boiler installed at your property, you can join Cosy Octopus. If you have another system in your property, get in touch and we'll let you know if you're eligible for the tariff.

    And / or an EV, solars, battery .. it's not easy to keep up with the strings attached to each tariff and enforced
