    On one of the March fixes here. Not exactly spectacular but better than what may be to come. Considering jumping back to Agile though as EV being collected next week and think for my usage, will.be the cheapest way to run it, well until around October when it will probably start going crazy prices.

    Long time since I've been on Tracker, but I've kept receiving the UR emails, and tomorrow, for my energy region, on April 2026 v1, gas is up to 7.98p/kWh - possible some energy regions will be above 8p/kWh?

    Not sure if @QrizB is still on tracker, I know he was about 2 months ago?

    Trump has really killed tracker

    Yes I'm still toughing it out on Gas Tracker, although I've stopped heating water with gas in the mornings and am using my immersion heater on IOG at 8p/kWh instead.

    The evening top-up for Mrs QrizB's bath is still gas. A small price for a happy wife 😬

    For my energy region, 8.23p/kWh, which I think is the highest I’ve seen?

    Today’s (month ahead?) wholesale gas reached 158p/therm, which seems to be the highest since January 2023?

    Coincidentally, today is seemingly the final day of the assessment period for October's 'Price Cap’…

    This winter is going to be brutal for gas prices but the main media does not seem to have realised yet.

    Doesn't seem out of the ordinary, not all that far off current fix prices for gas tbf. Anyone stil on gas tracker hopefully has done their research and knows full well they will be spending bonkers money come winter.
