Looks like fixing was the right move then, with the new cap rates announced...0

I fixed in July I am in SE England and fixed with Octopus the following rates:
E 23.89p/kWh
ESC 54.83p/day
G 5.58p/kWh
GSC 28.8p/day
Might be a touch more expensive on the unit rates for electricity but it's better than those eye-watering standing charges - they really should break them down on the bills further for transparency. It seems to be the catch-all dumping ground for all other costs.
