Really, it's your choice.
- Drop onto the flexible tariff, enjoy the cheapest prices until April and then hope that the energy market is "normal" and there's a cheap fix available, or have the capped rates rise by 50-60%; or
- Take the fix, pay almost 2x the currelt capped tariff but know you won't be paying any more than that for winter 22-23 and 23-24.

Would be useful if you post SC/kwh 2 year fixed rates that they are offering so we can see if same as sky high rates they are offering for new quotes, current tariff list shows no mention of cheaper existing customer 2 year fixed rates being offered at this time.

No new year existing fixed rates ...I'm going to hang on to the cheaper existing rate as long as I can0
