Martin Lewis has explained three energy bill checks you must make if you’re worried about being overcharged. The MoneySavingExpert was contacted by a worried viewer during his Money Show Live programme on ITV, reports The Mirror.
The viewer, Yvonne, asked whether it was right that her energy bill is rising from £49 to £123. She said: “I have just received my new monthly direct debit from my energy provider and it has gone from £49 to £123 from September and then £181 per month from October 28. I am in credit of £200, is this correct, as this will be one week’s pension money?”
Martin explained that normally, your energy bill should be roughly double what it was last year - but there are some exceptions. He said: “First of all, are you giving regular meter readings or do you have a working smart meter?
