It's a fixed rate. With significant further increases expected it's unsurpising prices are higher than the 1 April cap.

my sons has just gone up with bulb but hes only just paying more than me with elec, around 28.2kwh SB up to nearly 50p per day. atm mine is 20.9kwh and 25p SC per day, my gas is 4p his has gone up to 8p thats double and more to come, gas has hit 380 per therm eek
Are you on a fixed price tarriff and, if so, until when?
nah variable, but went to octopus after avro went to the wall, but avro administrator havent got round to sending me final bill, so been stuck on this variable for last 6 months while they sort it out, for some reason having issue getting my final bill, so have time to prepare before my bills rocket
On a variable tariff you're unfortunately going to be paying a lot more from 1 April than you are now.
hell yeah, still havent told me how much, but issue is havent had a bill since joining 6 months ago, rate has stayed same since, due to adminstrators sorting out my account at avro,lol

FTFY!
It's quite concerning what's going to happen come October. While we can absorb the ~120% increase coming next month, a similar increase in October is going to go from "well there goes this year's holiday" to "well there goes this year's dinner".
All our bulbs are LED, we have a 2 year old A rated boiler, double-glazing throughout. Not sure what else we can do to reduce our usage at the moment other than sit in the dark with the heating off... OK maybe not quite so bad as that, but still...
Considering emptying the loft and putting an extra 200mm of insulation down - should maybe save us £15-20/month? But need to figure out how to raise the floor so we can use the storage space still :/

Probably means the people over the street will be using their wood burner even more than they have been, joys of particulate pollution and the whole place smelling of smoke if we leave a window open a crack for ventilation. And won't even think about hanging the laundry outside in a dry day if the wind is coming in our direction.

Just had Bulb eventually write to me. From 95 to 180 from 1st April.

It's you isn't it, you live on my street!
quite a coincidence.But seriously, if you must burn solid fuel anywhere near anyone else then please dry the wood out properly first and get a proper modern burner so it produces less pollution.

lodger?
Not particularly flammable unfortunately
Mine was 1 yrs fixed 35p a therm, and that 2 months ago before the hike announcement, so no point doing it...paying 20p at mo, now up to 27 and prob 35 in oct. so where's the benefit paying 35p straight off the bat. The only point in fixing is if you can get a longer term 5yrs fixed really, and they never appear until mkt cr*ps out and they then offer the fixed at the highest rates.

Going ahead with this £200 discount in October will have negative impacts as you'll automatically get £40 added to next years bill even when the price rises.
