A mum-of-three has said she will avoid putting her heating on due to her energy bill more than tripling in price.
Linda Gapp said her direct debit for gas and electric more than doubled from £90 to £200 in May, and she has now been told it will shoot up to almost £300 a month in a couple of days, LancsLive reports. The 39-year-old, who has a son with special needs and a baby daughter, said she is 'dreading' the colder winter months.
She said the family have not yet switched on the heating and have been wrapping up instead. She added that she has not approached her energy provider OVO Energy due to being 'too scared'.
