Money Saving Expert's Martin Lewis has issued an urgent warning for anyone who has a direct debit agreement for their energy bills.
Mr Lewis appeared on ITV This Morning with Alison Hammond and Dermot O'Leary in which he gave a message about energy companies which Ofgem has found to have "serious weaknesses", reports Birmingham Live. He said: "They have weaknesses in their processes, so there is action happening on direct debits. We would expect direct debits to go up - if it has gone up by more than 100 per cent, they are being asked to review it.
"So if it is you, and yours has gone up by more than 100 per cent, the company should be reviewing it."
