If you have a long fixed deal for gas/electric, when will it run out?

Mine will end in October 2023. I think that two years was the longest available and one of the last, competitive fixes sold. I'm obviously relieved. However, I obviously really wish it had been a five year deal! I don't think the government (or the next one) will get their act together within a shorter timeframe.

August 2023 here. It will either have righted itself or gone to shit (more so than now) by then!

I think it's March 2024, but can't check since the login is not working!

Renewed end August 2021 and it finishes March 2024.
I wasn’t being clever and I just consider this was a stroke of luck.

Ours is July 2023

0ats · 01/04/2022 19:46

Total luck yes !

Ours fixed rate ends in May, we have an Air Source Heat Pump and an electric car, so we are in a bit of a bubble at the moment not feeling any direct effects of the energy price rise. Not looking forward to May though.

Oct 23. We only got it because our last company went bust. I’m still worried they won’t honour it as we use a lot of gas.

Feb 2024, ours was 200% luck as we had spent so much time making a decision.

I should imagine we paid more for months because of it.

We just happened to make it just before the news about the energy cap rising hit.

End of March next year, it was a 2 year fix. Not sure what will happen once it’s done

WillSmithsRightHook · 01/04/2022 20:07

Dec 2023 here. Excuse the daft question but will we be billed extra on top of that, does anyone know?

October 2023. I was with Bulb until last September and they did something minor that unreasonably annoyed me. I did a price comparison and switched to Octopus. Bulb went under about 8 weeks later. Never has my petty temper tantrum been so well timed.

February 2024. Again more luck/unintentional than anything but a huge relief.

I pay monthly by debit card, as if I want to set up a DD I can't stay on the tariff - a strange policy by Scottish Power but undoubtedly a better deal.

Riverlee · 01/04/2022 20:53

March 2023. Hopefully the situation will be better then.

Sounds like me! I think they had put my dd up for a second time in a short space of time abs I went in a huff. Switched to sainsburys as it was the same cost but fixed for 2 years. Think that was last week in September .

October 23 for electric
January 24 for gas

Justgivemewine · 01/04/2022 23:11

Sept 24 for electric and gas.

Our supplier went bust in July 21 and we were automatically switched over to one of the big companies. Within a few weeks they offered a good fixed rate deal (probably to try and keep our custom) so I jumped at it, (even though Martin moneysavingexpert was advising not to fix) as it seemed to much of a good deal to pass on.

To be fair I thought it would save us a small amount of money, never imagined things would go as insane as they have.
