What rates are you being offered by your provider at the moment?
These things depend on usage and region but there's a new Octopus 12M that seems to be 0.5p kWh cheaper for elec than the previous June v4 and so works out as similar to the EDF fix - but the EDF mentions early exit fees. There's the EDF variable tracker that has lower standing charges but that also seems to have early exit fees.
Octopus electricity unit rate for my region 1.78p higher than Outfox The Market, 1.16p higher than EDF with Gas unit rate broadly the same.( 12 month fixes)
Just compared the EDF fixed tariffs to Octopus rates and to my surprise Octopus are a fraction more expensive.
Is there a calculator or spread sheet that will help to work out what the prices will be ?
