Fixed tariffs can be a helpful way to make sure you are not at the mercy of a fluctuating market if the price per unit looks like it will go up. But if the energy price cap goes down, you could end up paying more. And it is important to remember that it does not mean your bill will be exactly the same each month. Your supplier locks in the price you pay per unit, but not how many units you consume. The more energy you use in a month, the more you will have to pay. It is always important to read your contract before you sign up and talk to them if you have any questions. You should always compare tariffs using a comparison website like Uswitch before you switch. Comment now
