So I have just taken the plunge and switched my tariff online from Flux to Agile Import, does anyone know what will happen to my export tariff? I assume it will change automatically (as I don't believe you can have just part of the Flux tariff), but does it switch to the Fixed Export or Agile Export, or something else? Did look at switching my export tariff online but didn't seem to be a way to do that without re-submitting all my documentation (MCS Certificate etc.) which seemed unnecessary.

Mine included £27.15 for gas, but still not quite as much as yours, but I'm now using about 7 kWh less electricity a day.Rookie numbers. You gotta pump those numbers. -£33.79 here, but no gas.

Not really Flux related, but it appears that Octopus has done away with the lite export tariff on Go and replaced it with the 15p rate now.

This poses a dilemma for me. I'm getting my charger installed in a couple of weeks so cannot go onto Intelligent Go until then. In that time I'm still stuck on Flux and paying an arm and a leg to charge my EV. Do you reckon it's worth going to go + 15p export now and then switching in a few weeks to Intelligent Go when I have the charger? Bearing in mind I have an Octopus EV on their salary sacrifice scheme so will eventually get 6p/kWh cheap rate on that.

I would switch to go and the 15p export rate with immediate effect….Not really Flux related, but it appears that Octopus has done away with the lite export tariff on Go and replaced it with the 15p rate now.

Whoa, when did this happen?
Looks like I'll be ringing Octopus in the morning as I'm still on outgoing octopus fixed lite with an 8p rate

Googling suggests it happened within the last week.

That's me off Flux now finally aswell. Changed in 5 minutes over the phone.
They said its fine to be on Go for now and then switch to Intelligent Go in a couple of weeks when my charger is in.

Can’t speak for on here but I know several people IRL.
When I joined Go (before iog) I wasn’t asked to prove I had an EV.

Yes, I'm on Go with panels and battery but no EV. Octopus recommended I use Go for winter months and Flux for summer.
