Octopus Tracker
I just wondered about people's experiences with this tariff and whether they feel they are winners or losers. I got a quote from them yesterday, and I have to say I find the numbers highly misleading. The figures are very attractive, beating even the good fixed rate tariff I got from Avro, but presumably based on an…

Smart meters
Hiya I moved into this property in January 2020. I reported to British Gas that there wasn't an in-home monitor. They booked me in with an engineer to get one installed but COVID hit literally days before they were due and told me it would obviously have to wait and to just monitor my usage on the app. I told them that…

Conflict in the Middle East: Martin Lewis' 'get off the Energy Price Cap' mini briefing
The wholesale gas price – what energy firms pay for gas – is spiking due to the conflict in the Middle East. This rate is a prime driver of UK electric prices, which means that if the spike's sustained (big if), it will likely push the Energy Price Cap rate up from July. Conflict in the Middle East: Martin Lewis' 'get off…

Few questions about choosing next tariff
Hi all, My current tariff is coming to an end, which is the Loyal Octopus 12m Fixed April 2025 v1 and I am trying to find the best thing to do in terms of choosing my next move.

E.ON Next Fixed 15M v7 MSE exclusive tariff
Hi all, I've taken the plunge and late last night started the switch to this E.ON Next exclusive tariff, mainly because MSE suggested I could save £531 a year. It shows monthly DD of roughly £250 (£100 less than current provider's recommended amount) but I cannot find the actual unit prices and standing charges anywhere!…

Back billing of inaccurate bill
Hello, i've got into a right pickle with my electricity supplier. It's quite a mess and i'll try and keep it simple. BG took over the supplier I was with on a by choice pre-pay smart meter. I was billed quarterly for usage and submitted meter readings. Out of the blue my meter readings were being rejected as too high on…

Octopus have moved IOG to a 6 month fixed only for now, with 8p overnight, and a rather expensive day rate too. For new customer/renewals only (for now). I wonder what they'll do to the variable IOG off-peak rate folk are already on.

I was on a 12 month dual fuel fixed tarif with BG, Exclusive Fixed Energy v78, due to end in October 2026.

Should I fix my energy and abandon cheaper fix im on?
I have a fixed tariff until July 26 with BG and with the news about global gas prices rising 43% - I am questioning whether it's worth agreeing a new fix now at £7 more a month, fixed until March 27. Is the consensus that the energy cap is going to go sky high now? Is that additional £50 I'll lose by moving my fix now…
