Not higher, just worked out differently. It’s all regional. If you find one of QrizB’s posts and click on the link in their signature you’ll find all the rates set out there.erikvictoriasw1 said:Yes I'm in central London, so cap is much higher then, thanks for replyLars🎉 MORTGAGE FREE (First time!) 30/09/2016 🎉 And now we go again…New mortgage taken 01/09/23 🏡

In the south west where I live the standing charge is 51.6 p so your rates look cheap to me! The unit price is about 1p cheaper for me but I'd be paying less overall in London.0 -
This is the rates in march, and I'm in WestminsterLars0

No, these are the rates from 1 April. Some energy companies are displaying these rates currently but if you look closely you'll see somewhere a note that they are not the current rates.erikvictoriasw1 said:This is the rates in march, and I'm in WestminsterLars0
