Money Saving Expert Martin Lewis has issued an important warning to those who pay for their gas and electricity via Direct Debit.
The money expert spoke on his ITV show, Martin Lewis' Money Show Live, and explained what will happen on October 1 as the price cap comes into force. He also issued advice to those who are planning to get cheaper rates while paying via Direct Debit.
Martin warned those who pay as you go for energy will be spending around nine per cent more on average than those on Direct Debit. He also noted that he understands why some people won't use Direct Debit, but those who do are better off in the long run.
