Martin Lewis urges followers to do one thing ahead of energy price cap rise

Martin Lewis has been championing the UK public for years, and never more so than in recent weeks as the cost of living crisis continues to hit hard.

On Friday, regulator Ofgem announced that the price cap would increase from £1,971 to £3,549 for the average household starting in October. An average household is considered to be one that uses 12,000 kWh of gas and 2,900 kWh of electricity in a year.

With many of us already struggling to cope amid the cost of living crisis, the price hike comes as frightening news. Mr Lewis is now urging the government to act as he fears people will lose their lives this winter.
