What tariffs they offering until Jan 2023

About £52 a month more than if I just let it fall into standard variable (which is price capped).

It's  a bit worrying that they are only offering six month tariffs maybe because they are expecting a 44% minimum increase in October. If it was fixed for a year with no penalty to leave like what I'm getting at eon I would take it but side months doesn't make any sense considering it would cost you approx £52 per month more.

Glad I picked the capped 2 year deal now and didn't hold out

I'm with Octopus, they emailed me last week to say they'd forgotten to send me my renewal details as my deal actually ended a couple of weeks ago, therefore they're keeping me on my current (early 2021) tariff for another 12 months. Happy days, thanks for the fuck-up Octopus Smiley

I would suspect that taking note of all the bad news floating around early this week an announcement of a windfall tax and additional help will appear reasonably shortly (I have a vague recollection that parliament goes into recess again on Thursday so before then maybe), whether it will be enough for many I doubt it sadly.

I'm surprised how expensive electricity is now compared with gas. Using both as moderately as possible, I'm still in credit on a 1 year fixed deal with Eon, the gas cost is nothing compared with the leccy.

I thought that leccy was now produced more cheaply with wind and solar power than it used to be. Seems a bit strange.

Calculated to be around a 42% hike on top off the 50% we have already seen.

A total increase of 213% in the space of 6 months. The April rise was huge but will affect people less through the summer months. This extra hike will hit some people incredibly hard over winter.
