Martin Lewis has warned people with an energy meter of a fast approaching deadline they need to be aware of ahead of a rise in electricity and gas prices.
The MoneySavingExpert returned to TV last night for his ITV advice show and offered fresh advice to Brits, with an urgent warning to take a meter reading in just a matter of days. As well as offering guidance on mortgage rate increases and a new energy price guarantee scheme, Martin said every household should take a meter reading on September 30.
This is the last day of the month and the last day before the October 1 price rise, with September 30 dubbed 'Meter Reading Day'. He offered similar advice earlier this year at the end of April which saw energy websites crash due to the demand with many trying to submit readings to their providers.
