The cost of living crisis is set to escalate in October with the impending price cap rise on the horizon. But consumers have been told it will prove more harm than good if they decide to protest and not pay their energy bills.
Don’t Pay UK is a campaign encouraging UK residents to basically ‘go on strike’ and pledge to withhold payment from their energy supplier throughout the month of October. But experts have warned that drastic action like this could have lasting repercussions.
Specialists at Debt Support Centre insist failure to meet payments is likely to result in serious consequences, such as bad credit ratings, the arrival of bailiffs to your home or even court action. They say it is important to consider all of the risks that could arise as a consequence of missed payments.
