    Oohhh has introduced the tracker tariff designed to give customers what matters most from their energy supplier, savings, clarity, and a bit more control.

  3. Alastair Campbell· Host0:25

    And it guarantees that your rates stay below the Ofgem price cap, which saves you up to two hundred pounds, and the tariff updates automatically every quarter.

  4. Rory Stewart· Host0:35

    Energy prices don't move in straight lines. Global events and market pressures you can't predict and certainly can't control still find their way onto your bill.

  5. Alastair Campbell· Host0:44

    And if you're on the wrong tariff, you can be stuck with higher rates after the pressure has ended.

  6. Rory Stewart· Host0:49

    With Oohhh Energy's tracker tariff, that changes. If prices fall, your rate adjusts at the next quarterly update.

  7. Alastair Campbell· Host0:56

    And it's automatic. No switching, no trying to second-guess the market. You're protected while prices are high and ready to benefit when they fall.
