Thanks Darren - I have downloaded it, but the standard variable rate it is showing the savings against seems to be .52905p/kWh, the standing charge is about right. I can't see a way to make it calculate against the current/new price cap .34p, which would mean the savings aren't quite right? and for me on some days it's already showing that I am paying extra and if that is against .52p I might be better off back on a price cap tariff

*Edit as with others on GO I go the new gas rates but nothing about Electric, but I have found this on the Octopus website, so maybe Go will change
How the £2,500 Energy Price Guarantee works
If you’re on a fixed tariff
If you’re on a fixed tariff, the Energy Price Guarantee will discount your tariff unit rates by
up to 17p per unit of electricity and 4.2p per unit of gas.
Customers are on lots of different fixed tariffs depending on when they locked their rates in. The amount of discount you get depends on your tariff. The Energy Price Guarantee can only bring your tariff down as low as a Standard Variable Tariff – so, 34p per unit of electricity and 10.3p per unit of gas (or £2,500 for the typical home).
That means that if you’re currently on a fixed tariff that’s cheaper than that, you won’t get any further discount, but can continue to enjoy your cheaper fixed rates until your fixed term contract runs out.
