    Here is the screenshot showing current and proposed tariffs:

    Interesting, my quote for gas on the same Jul 23 Iss 1 is slightly less at 8.28 unit and same 14.81 sc.

    I see the new v2 just come out is 7.43 unit and 29.11 sc, that makes the v2 an extra £52 a year on the standing charge, crikey
    And nearly double that saving on tge TDCV 12000kWh gas consumption - 8.28-7.43= 0.85p x 12,000 = £102.

    So overall £50 cheaper.

    Looking at only one component of a price is meaningless.

    And even relative small households can win with the new lower unit rates.

    £52 / 0.85p = 6117 units to recover the difference.



    Yes, you have to take into account the whole package and what you use, but for us for dual fuel, we’ve reduced by £250 a year to go onto the v1, but the v2 which should be cheaper than the v1 (?) has gone up £60 over the v1


    Why should the V2 be cheaper than the V1 ?

    Clearly EOn - who seemed very selective on who they offered V1 to - have looked at it - and decided it carries a high financial risk to them - particularly as it's low SC favoured low users - over actual fixed payments to grid etc.

    When for instance CI latest figures suggest prices increasing for electric - and even bouncing back for Q1 2024 for gas ?

    Fixed deals aren't necessarily a rush to the bottom - their not designed to favour the customer over the supplier - who only has a 1.9% EBIT (profit allowance) in the cap.

    In the past the big 6 actually charged a premium over current rates for the security.

    Good point, I assumed the v2 would be cheaper after the lower price cap was announced. The v3 is now out and is a smidgin lower than the v2 on the standing charges

    v4 now out, slightly reduced kWh and standing charges for gas and lecky over v2 and v3. For me, £33 a year cheaper than the v3

    Very close to our current fix from April 2023 then at 29.24p kwh. Are those rates including vat as the SC is a bit cheaper than our fix.

    Inc vat. The variable is 29.61 pkwh and 53.96 sc inc vat - wonder if it’s worth going on that for a few months rather than being tied into a year, and fixing later in the year whilst we use no gas and less lecky to hope prices reduce further
