Am I better off going on a fix

Hi
I'm unsure if I should continue to stay on a fixed rate.
This is what I have been offered.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Wasn't sure to go on the standard variable tariff instead.
Many thanks

    My guess, would be that you are going to be roughly in line with the October price cap, perhaps slightly lower, then slightly higher than the April price cap, so probably little difference overall.

    Plus add to that 2 months paying the higher fix instead of April 2022 SVT.

    If this was all I was being offered I would take a gamble and not fix on this deal and stay on the SVT.

    But it's your choice.

    Thankyou I'm going to change to the svt as I'm still in the 14 day cooling off period.
    Thankyou
