British Gas Dispute

I won't bore you with the details but I was in a dispute with my electricity and gas supplier British Gas, the ombudsman got involved and ruled in my favour, instructing British Gas to place me on to a two year fixed tariff for elec & gas deal at the best price which was available in JUNE 2021. British Gas have sent me my offer but the tariffs seem far too high for JUNE 2021 at 40p/kwh for normal rate elec, 24p/kwh for low rate elec and 8.9p/kwh for gas. These rates are significantly higher than my friend achieved when she took out a 2 yr fixed rate in March this year !!!
Is there anyone out there who entered into a 2 yr fixed elec and gas deal with British Gas in say May/June/July 2021 and if so, at what tariffs ?

    Astria,
    Thank you for your response but I can't find past British Gas tariffs on the link you provided.
    Can you talk me through how I do this ?

    you need to put in your postcode and what type of tariff. then the drop down will show you all of the tarifs. that's because rates are different in different areas for the same tariff.

    It's amazing how those with a can-do attitude and willingness to 'pitch in and work' get all the luck, isn't it?
