Trying to work out if switching to this plan is worth it.

is there anyway to find out the daily rates or the wholesale rates so I can work out the formula?

    A bit more information is required?

    Are you perhaps talking about Octopus Tracker?

    I think you're going to have to be a bit more specific?

    Easily done! 

    I am on the tracker tariff in the absence of any fixes that pull be far enough under the cap. Sure it comes at a risk that the daily rate rises and isn’t protected by the price cap, but so far I’ve remained way under the cap so many £’s better off!

    There is an app called Octopus Compare that allows you to easily compare two tariffs historically if you are already on an Octopus tariff. There is probably a website that would allow you to get the day by day rates - someone I’m sure will add if there is!



    I also know that should rates significantly rise I can leave the tariff (but can’t go back for 9 months), so I’d only want to do that if we had some crisis.
