⚡️ Another energy price increase confirmed…
Ofgem has announced that the energy price cap will rise by another 4% from 1st October.
This comes right after the 13% increase we saw in July, and current market forecasts suggest we could see yet another rise in January. 😬
For an average household, October’s increase adds roughly £60 a year to bills.
Why act now instead of waiting?
The Price Cap Lags: Ofgem sets the cap based on past wholesale costs.
Fixed Deals Move Faster: Fixed tariffs react immediately based on future energy expectations.
Waiting until January to see what happens means today’s competitive fixed rates may no longer be available.
Fixing isn't right for everyone, but knowing your options costs nothing.
Are you currently:
⚡️ On a standard variable tariff?
⚡️ On a fixed tariff ending in the next 4 months?
If so, I’d be happy to take a quick look at what you’re paying vs. what fixed alternatives are out there.
If staying right where you are is your best move, I’ll tell you that straight up! 😊
No pressure, no obligation.
