Martin Lewis has advised first-time buyers about energy tariffs during his appearance on ITV's This Morning. Talking to Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby, in a later interview than planned, he told caller Bryony that she had the "right" to a price-capped tariff. He warned that energy prices are expected to rise to 42% in October this year.
Martin's own show, The Martin Lewis Money Show, aired on Tuesday (May 24) and in the show, he gave the exact figure for a fixed-rate energy deal that you should go and find. You can read more about that here.
He advised caller Bryony, meanwhile: " If you can get a fix now that is no more than 30% over the current price cap, it looks like it’ll be cheap now," but did say that it was "tough to give a blanket answer."
