I've had no other communication from Octopus via mail or email since they told me they were taking over, not to cancel the DD and please can we have meter readings.
Shrugs.

Seemed a bit 'off' but as with @Haych I was advised by Octopus that they were taking over & not to cancel the existing DD.
I reckon that as I still have all the financial records relating to all this & related transactions, that things will sort themselves out in due course & we'll all be OK eventually.

It used to be that energy companies were obliged to display Tariff Comparison Rates (TCR's) which did exactly what you mention, but that was conveniently dropped by OFGEM to 'help' consumers... cough, cough.
You can still manually calculate TCR's using the formula on this page https://www.uswitch.com/gas-electricity/guides/tariff-comparison-rate/
Having just read your post, I've just checked and I've had no further DD's to Avro go out. Mind you, that might be because of the dates/timing. I also haven't had any further comms from Octopus after the last message on 29th, but to be fair it doesn't make any reference to them contacting within any time frame. I haven't cancelled the DD, but I might just ask the bank what the situation is in that regard.
The avro direct debit just took its monthly £100.
ive also had a reminder to input my meter reads to Avro. Not great is it…
Which I did, and according to the information I can see from the 'My Account' page, I should be fully switched by 26th October.
I also like the fact that it gives me the option to cancel my switch and remain with my current supplier, lol!
All this malarkey is making me very aware of how much energy I use, though. That's partly a good thing but I'm conscious that I'm switching lights off for other people and avoiding putting the heating on - it's not been on since early April and I'll try my best to put off putting it on for as long as I can.
Energy price increases = miserable living!

My head said brake, but my heart cried never.
