    Below 1p kwh is nice will make sure we plan some heavy things at those times like tumble dryer/hot water and oven etc.

    I shall plug the car in, before I go to bed. Should be full by 4pm. Not quite as cheap as I like but still a tenth of the cost per mile of petrol.

    I'd be tempted to give Agile a try, now, were it not for the 9-month excommunication from Tracker if I decide it was not a good move. What they call recant being denied
    Why not use the Octopus Compare app?

    Deep seated hatred of Scottish Power and all who sail in her - would love to see Ofgem grow a pair and actually do something about it.

    Agile was changed to 12 mth contract, locking in the lower s/c before April so it may be higher if you join now

    Just got my latest bill and I wasn't expecting a particularly good result, what with the daily average being around 18p for most of the month, so was pleasantly surprised to average 14.73p/kWh, which is still over 25% below the SVT.

    Long live Agile!

    As the ofgem cap continues to fall, the additional peak time premium (typically 12p) increases as a proportion of the unit price. When the price cap was ~34p/kWh, the additional 12p equated to a 35% premium, now that has risen to a 49% premium and will continue to rise as prices fall further. This is making the peak rate prices proportionally more expensive.
