What happens when you search for the available tariffs in your region? 🤔 Does it show 'Next Assured Fix 15m v1' as an option? If not (as I suspect) then this must be a an extra special 'special' for those very very special customers in the death throes of a current fix. 🤣

No no 15 month options.
Here's a table of offers open to me (electricity only) and including a rough computation of next flex from April1.
Current Eon Next customer, ex EDF, Zog and Symbio. Don't think dual fuel saves money and don't like smart meters. Chronologically Gifted. If I offend let me know by private message, but I’ll continue to express my opinions nonetheless.
Next Secure Fixed 24m v1
Next Secure Fixed 12m v4
Next Fixed 24m v8
Next Fixed 12m v9
Next Fixed 24m v8 No Exit Fees
Next Fixed 12m v9 No Exit Fees
Next Pledge Tracker 12m V3
Next Flex
All but one of these 'deals' are more expensive than my current Loyalty Fix V4 according to my calculations.
And with prices predicted to fall over the next two quarters, none of them make financial sense to me having run the numbers through my spreadsheets.
Next Flex for me when my fix runs out, unless they can better these offers by at least 20% after the next cap announcement.
Don't shoot me, I'm only the piano player. I DON'T work for or on behalf of EON.Next, but am willing to try and help if I can. Not on mains gas, mobile network or mains drainage. House heated almost entirely by baby dragons.
I don't know what they're up to by offering us different tariffs. Hopefully they are the tariffs that are best for us (the customer) in our regions. 🤔
Joe you are being a little too trusting. Eon next will structure their offers in such a way that they win whatever the choice we make - what is best for us doesn't come into their thinking. They're not warm and cuddly like a teddy bear - more like a voracious grizzly.🐻

Don’t worry, I didn’t for one minute think they were putting the customer first.
I'm an Eon Next dual fuel customer with no particular expertise but have some time on my hands that I am using to try and help out a bit.
Here's my comparison of your fix offer to current variable prices for the eastern region. By reducing units more than the standing charge the offer is more attractive to heavier user of energy 😎.

EDIT My Apologies the comparison here is with non DD current pricing - so basically not worth even looking at - sorry.
Thanks for having a go. Here's my take...
My current EAC (according to my statement about two weeks ago) is Elect 4830 and Gas 19173
Current tariff Next Loyalty Fixed v4 is Elect 30.41p/kWh with 37.63p/day SC and Gas 7.27p/kWh with 23.08/day SC... £3084pa or £257pcm
Next Secure Fixed 24m v1 (My 'Special Offer') is Elect 24.14p/kWh with 44p/day SC and Gas 6.12p/kWh with 29.6p/day SC... £2609pa or £217pcm
Current Next Flex is Elect 29.22p/kWh with 44p/day SC and Gas 7.31p/kWh with 29.6p/day SC... £3081pa or £257pcm
So, from my quick calculations I'm currently paying the same as if I was on the current Next Flex but... if I switched to the 'Special Offer' I would save around £40 per month or £480m per year for the next two years compared to what I'm paying now.
If I had never heard of the Price Cap or Cornwall Insight predictions I would switch to my Special Offer. However, the cynic in me thinks they are dangling this at me now in the belief that come next week the prices will drop, new tariffs will be announced and I would be locked in for two years with the threat of £300 exit fees if I switch again.

Have you considered Next Pledge with their 3% undercutting of Next Flex at each cap point (£25 exit fees if you switch to another supplier)? In the absence of anything better between now and April 1st this might be where I am headed in 39 days time.

Decisions, decisions 🤔
Don't know why it's in red but I can't seem to change it
Wait until you know the new cap figures and maybe wait some more to see whether Eon Next are a market follower or leader when it come to fixed-price tariffs between now and April 1st. I have no doubt that there will be better options available to me over the next 39 days than are currently being offered. If none are forthcoming, Next Pledge is a bit of a no-brainer if I am happy to stay with Eon Next. 👍

Nope... this is not an option when I do a tariff search.
