Hi All

I have just watched this Video from “Dan Does Solar”. And I am going to give it a try for my Gas account. The savings look good in the long run as long as your aware there could be a peak (I am OK with this)

You can swap out at any time but you can not go back for 9 months.

If you sign up you can choose Electric or Gas or both.

Daveb01 I’ve been on Gas Tracker since July 2022. It’s never gone above the price cap tariff. Saved me £hundreds!

Daveb01 It's a good choice, saved me a fortune, ChrisRowe says it's never gone above standard, always been 2-3p lower for me

Been on it for the last year or so. Saved a lot although most of our heating is ASHP via battery now. However it's still cheap as chips to switch the boiler on if the batteries are spent and COP drops off when it's very cold. Never seen it much above 5p per unit. They have just announced a price adjustment but not too bad, about 0.3 pence increase if I recall. Gas tracker and IOG for electricity has been a big win over the last 12 months or so.
