Martin Lewis has warned that millions of people on low income are missing out on help to cut their water bills by as much as £160 a year.
On Good Morning Britain, the consumer champion spoke about the 'lesser-known' support which people on low income can claim. By using social tariffs, which are available for all water companies, certain customers can receive a discount of up to 50% in some cases.
Despite the huge savings that people can make, it is believed that only one-fifth of those eligible are claiming the support. Speaking on GMB, presenter Susanna Reid prompted: "5.7 million households are missing out on an average £160 a year?"
