Have attepmted to get some clarity regarding best options for energy and have tied myself in knots attempting to resolve.
Basics are im coming to end of my 12 m fixed gas with octopus. Options from them do nothing  go to flexible eqautes to £840 for year or 12m fixed eqautes to £741 for year.
I have an EV which is why I opted for the Intelligent Octopus Go tariff.
I am struggling to locate total costs for the 12m fixed year . I can locate the usage for my EV via the Ohme app , no data visible on the Octopus account online.
Can anyone point me to were I can loacte the appropriate information which hopefully will enable me to get advice with the current costs of my energy usage.
Maybe its me not looking in the correct places,really confusing the ammount of data needed to get to the best fit.
Any advice and guidance much apprciated.
Regards Paul

    If you're looking for your last 12 months electricity costs, I think the only way is to add up the totals shown on your last 12 months of electricity bills.
    Because of how Intelligent Go is priced, you can't get the info directly from the Octopus app or any of the online comparison tools.
