    Having just done this, yes, if you're within the last 49 days.

    My gas tariff expires in Nov, so I selected a new one in the app, and that is confirmed as starting when the current one ends.

    (I had read the t&cs, and emailed to check first, as the t&cs weren't quite as explicit as I'd hoped they'd be. Confirmed via email.)

    And I'm keeping my eye out for a lower unit rate tariff, within the 14 day cooling off period too.

  • Thanks @vic_sf49 et al, that's good to know! I looked it up a few days ago and it seems that it's 45 days prior not 49, but I'll set a reminder for 49 days anyway.

    I’ve just emailed for a switch to the V5 tariff when my current fix ends - slightly cross with myself that I didn’t take the plunge when I was umming and ahhing about it last week mind, to get the earlier one!

    Octopus 6M Winter Fix October 2026 v1 looks like same rates as Octopus 12M Fixed October 2026 v5, cannot see v6 in current or historical listing.

    No exit fees.

    I'm not seeing that 6M fix on the webpage or through the API for my postcode.

    12 Month V6, is the same as V5 for my region (East Midlands).

    Wonder why they do that.

    Can I switch just my gas to the latest fixed tariff? (My electric is on Agile)

    I can't see a gas-only fixed tariff on their site, only prices for gas+electric
