Cheapenergyclub Avro/Octopus query

Hi all.
Sorry if this has been asked before.
When trying to do the price comparison on 'Cheap Energy Club' I can't seem to locate the 'Flexible Avro' tariff
For what it's worth right now, can anyone advise which tariff I can select as a replacement when doing the price comparison or are CheapEnergyClub aware of the need to add tihis?
Cheers.

Choose "Flexible Octopus", it's close enough to make no real difference.

I emailed the Cheap Energy Club back in early December and they weren't interested in adding the correct tariff name for ex-Avro customers.
Thanks for getting in touch.
This tariff is listed under the name "Flexible Octopus v2" in the Energy Club, as this was the name that Octopus provided us for the tariff. If you select this, you should find that the rates match.
I hope this helps.
Thanks

Cheers.Will I be on the same rates I was with Avro? Will I pay more?
The prices Avro were charging were unsustainable, which is why they went out of business. Your Avro tariff came to an end on 26th September - the point the company ceased trading.
You'll be moved onto our Flexible Octopus tariff, ...
This was repeated in their entry of FRIDAY 8TH OCTOBER, where they re-stated:
"Avro customers will be moved onto our Flexible Octopus tariff"
For reasons, perhaps only known to Octopus, they may have later decided to rename the tariff that ex-Avro customers were actually put on.
But according to their entry of MONDAY 18th OCTOBER, they stated:
"..the tariff lines up exactly with our current variable tariff, Flexible Octopus."
