Martin Lewis explains who is making 'big money' during energy crisis

Martin Lewis has explained who is raking in "big money" during the energy crisis - and it isn't usually the companies that we pay our bills to.

It comes as households are warned they could see their fuel bills cost more than their monthly mortgage payments next year as energy prices skyrocket. Many people are set to see their disposable incomes shrink significantly in the new year with some seeing the cost of their utility bills catching up with, or overtaking, their mortgage.

Energy prices could spike at as much as £6,823 per year for the average household from next April, according to the latest forecast by energy consultancy Auxilion, which amounts to about £569 a month. In comparison, the average bill in October 2021 was £1,400 a year.
