The cost of living is increasing with many people noticing the likes of their shopping and energy bills soaring.
Energy bills, as forecasted by experts, are expected to rise again with the cap set to soar close to £3,600 per year from October - before jumping again in January.
While Ofgem warns to take energy predictions with caution, PA news agency reports that the 'observation window' - when Ofgem tracks the market to decide what the cap will be - closed on Thursday and so these estimates are more certain than ever.
