Energy prices are changing on Saturday, October 1, 2022. While the government announced the Energy Price Guarantee, which means the cost of energy for the average home will sit at around £2,500 a year for the next two years, this is the amount for an average household and it doesn't mean that your bill will be no more than this figure, so it's important to still take every measure you can to keep your bill down.
So, should you be taking a meter reading before the price increase? Financial guru Martin Lewis says that for most people, the answer is yes.
With so much financial turmoil being reported at the moment, it's easy to forget that the date that energy prices will rise again is looming. The MoneySavingExpert website founder updated his followers on Twitter, reminding them to take a reading.
