Martin Lewis has explained how people who aren't eligible for the government's Council Tax Rebate scheme can still get some money back. On Good Morning Britain on Wednesday (30 March), the Money Saving Expert shared his top tips ahead of the energy bill price increase on Friday (1 April).
He was joined by host Susanna Reid for a special edition of the programme. It comes as the average household on default tariffs will see their bills increase by £693 a year, while those using prepayment metres will see an hike of £708, according to regulator Ofgem.
The government announced a host of measures to help those who will struggle with the rising costs, including a Council Tax Rebate payment of £150. But not everyone will be entitled to the rebate; it will only be available to households that fall under specific council tax banding A-D.
