Not going to really need any heating until November probably so will also sit on tracker for a bit even if it tips over the SVR price short term.

I think it depends what part of the country you're in, some parts will be seeing a frost / negative numbers next week

I'm surprised I've lasted this long.

Last year tado informs me I cracked on start of October.

This year it hasn't been on yet!

 

[200sols]

Well it being mid twenties might have something to do with it

This October weather has felt more like August/September to me, weird weather we're having lately.

My deal runs out in March, so I'm safe this winter! Then it'll be straight onto Octopus and maybe an EV...

Oh yeah that is lucky to miss the winter!

I have no idea what I'm gonna do yet. Probably just have to suck it up.

Hoping to only be here about 2 years more. That could be house or country. So there will be no purchasing of solar etc. Probably just have to suck it up

Did wonder if could run extension leads to the neighbours and charge for that. As elec is 23p and I think SVR is much higher still?

 

[HungryHippos]

Last year was more expensive, was 10p/kWh for gas for most of last Winter.

This year SVR is 7.something so somewhere around 30% cheaper.

No it's £0.30 so your idea is simply not worth the hassle.

Ooh that's come down a bit right? Would need to be about 50p to be profitable!

Most people had £400 of help from the government though.
