Ofgem has issued an urgent warning ahead of the energy price cap increase in October.
The energy regulator spoke out after a growing number of people have joined a movement pledging not to pay their bills amid soaring prices. The Don't Pay UK campaign has urged households to protest by not paying their bills from October 1 if the UK Government does not intervene ahead of the price cap increase.
Ofgem confirmed that it would now review its price cap every three months. Current predictions estimate that the price cap will increase from £1,971 to £3,523 in October, and then again to £4,210 in January.
