Hi, I am looking at Martin's recommended deal with Green energy, which ends this Friday, but the prices are higher - especially the daily charges - than my current deal with Octopus energy - which expires on October 1st, but has no early exit fees. Is Martin saying that prices are going to go up so high that it would be better to change now than to stay with my current cheaper deal, as the deals available then in October are likely to be considerably higher price?  Any thoughts anyone? Thanks all.

    The green deal is not even the cheapest available on CEC. Better to just do a switch using Citizens advice switching tool and CEC and seeing which is the cheapest (and which you are happy to switch to)
    Prices may well go up by october when your deal ends. So might be worth having a look now if you can fix anything in that is a similar price.
