To me they look identical, save for paying more for the 1Year option. Both seem to fix the rate for 12 months... so why pay more for the second option.
I agree with andy65. Both though are considerably higher than current variable rates. Comparing the variable/fix conundrum is difficult and you have to factor in usage of the different fuels across the summer and winter periods, and factor in that at present you'll be paying way above the price capped variable rates but after ! October you'll probably be paying below the increased variable rate.
And what will the future price increases be?
It eventually comes down to certainty, that a fix gives you, against the uncertainty of the variable. Attitudes to these sort of issues are rather personal, and nobody can say for certain which option will prove to be advantageous with the benefit of hindsight.
Current Eon Next customer, ex EDF, Zog and Symbio. Don't think dual fuel saves money and think the smart meter programme is a waste of our money. Chronologically Gifted. If I offend let me know by private message, but I’ll continue to express my opinions nonetheless.
