Martin Lewis is calling on Chancellor Rishi Sunak to scrap the new £200 energy rebate after claiming over half of Brits don’t want to take part in the scheme.
Households in England, Scotland and Wales will get a £200 upfront discount on their energy bills from this October - but it will need to be paid back.
Families will start repaying at a rate of £40 per year over five years from 2023 to 2027. This is because energy suppliers will be loaned the money to do this by the government.
