Martin Lewis has warned that some households will face another hike in their energy bills in January. It comes as millions are already struggling with soaring costs.
The news may come as a shock, as many people are expecting their bills to remain the same until April, as the Government has introduced an energy price guarantee until then. The policy means some of the cost of energy is subsidised by the state, meaning bills for an average household will not rise above £2,500.
Each unit of electricity is capped at 34p instead of 67p, and each unit of gas is just 10.3p instead of 17p, YorkshireLive reports. That means that households that use more than average amounts of energy will still pay more.
