Switch now to avoid a giant British Gas bill

British Gas announce an eye-watering price rise of up to 12.5% on their most expensive electricity tariffs from September.

Even worse, this rise affects their most loyal customers – those who don't have the time or inclination to call their supplier for a new fixed deal every 12 months.

You may have suspected you're paying too much. You may have planned to swap suppliers – or check you're not being ripped off – but just not got around to it.

So here's our promise: If British Gas are raising your prices, switch to our Octopus 12M Fixed tariff. 
We guarantee you'll save – in fact, if after 12 months you're worse off than sticking with your British Gas tariff, we'll double the difference.

Switch now to beat the price hike
