Octopus Tracker

I thought I did well getting on Tracker before the cut-off on Monday, but it looks like it was a waste of time. No doubt there will be a flood of customers moving to the SVT on Thursday.

What makes you think that? I only ask because although I applied for the tracker before the cut off, I haven't moved onto it for electricity yet.

It's looking as though the government is going to fix prices where they are i.e. the April cap. The July v1 Tracker's cap is slightly higher than the October Ofgem cap.

There are reports that Truss will freeze the current price cap for up to 18 months. It’s by no means a certainty, though.

Prices may fall dramatically if gov's start capping everywhere, which will be the natural cycle so tracker cap may be high but we may find its actually 'cheap' again

Thank you all. I shall hold off asking to be moved to the electricity tracker rate for the time being.

It says on their website, I am not sure if they changed it on the newest tracker tariffs, but 100% on gas tracker v3 and agile 2018 you can leave whenever you want.
