Martin Lewis offers fixed energy bills ahead advice of suspected price cap freezing

Financial expert Martin Lewis has shared advice on what to do if you're on a fixed energy bill and the price cap is frozen today, September 8. The advice comes as new Prime Minister Liz Truss is expected to freeze the energy price cap at £2,500.

Mr Lewis appeared on This Morning yesterday, September 7, and took questions from concerned viewers ahead of a bleak winter. Advising those who are on a fixed energy bill, Mr Lewis said: "The honest answer is I don't know. I think you'll get out with exit penalties - but I'll be lobbying for anybody who has fixed to be able to switch to standard tariffs without exit penalties.

"We are in rumour territory as it stands. I can't give you a firm answer. I'd probably sit on your hands for a day or two and wait to see what the announcement is."
