From viewers wondering whether they should go for a cheaper variable deal at this point or a fixed deal, which is more expensive, sure, but they re wondering whether that is the right way to go given the volatility at the moment. so, it depends on everyone“s individual circumstances. if you are worried about how to go through winter, it is likely that the variable deal is going to be the best price for now, the caveat here is to make sure that you are vigilant, maybe sign up to a newsletter or news alert when the better deal is becoming available. if you are worried long term what prices might do, a fixed might be the right thing to do, but i caution that you should make sure you can afford it, because a fixed is for 12 or 2a months, so you will be set on this price for that time. is it possible to say at this stage how much typically prices might go up by? it is difficult to say ....
